Today’s poem is called ‘In the Departure Lounge’.

In the Departure Lounge

in the departure lounge,
she drew him near,
then softly whispered in his ear,
not words of parting’s sweet, sweet sorrow,
but don’t forget the bins tomorrow

🌱OK Rose experts. I am not madly keen on Roses but I did see a stunning Veilchenblau rambler whilst on holiday. It looks like it has a big spread I have a fence I can train it against, but would an arch be better? Do i need to let it "ramble" or can it stand a bit of annual pruning?
