Gertrude Stein wrote a poem called "Sacred Emily" which contains these lines:

"Rose is a rose is a rose is a rose
Loveliness extreme.
Extra gaiters,
Loveliness extreme.
Sweetest ice-cream.
Pages ages page ages page ages."

In "Romeo and Juliet, Shakespeare wrote:

"What's in a name? That which we call a rose
By any other word would smell as sweet."

(From Act II Scene 2)
Juliet.
O Romeo, Romeo! wherefore art thou Romeo
Deny thy father and refuse thy name;
Or, if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love,
And I'll no longer be a Capulet.


Romeo.
[Aside.] Shall I hear more, or shall I speak at this?


Juliet.
'Tis but thy name that is my enemy;--
Thou art thyself, though not a Montague.
What's Montague? It is nor hand, nor foot,
Nor arm, nor face, nor any other part
Belonging to a man. O, be some other name!
What's in a name? that which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet;
So Romeo would, were he not Romeo call'd,
Retain that dear perfection which he owes
Without that title:--Romeo, doff thy name;
And for that name, which is no part of thee,
Take all myself.


Romeo.
I take thee at thy word:
Call me but love, and I'll be new baptiz'd;
Henceforth I never will be Romeo.


Juliet.
What man art thou that, thus bescreen'd in night,
So stumblest on my counsel?


Romeo.
By a name
I know not how to tell thee who I am:
My name, dear saint, is hateful to myself,
Because it is an enemy to thee.
Had I it written, I would tear the word.


Juliet.
My ears have yet not drunk a hundred words
Of that tongue's utterance, yet I know the sound;
Art thou not Romeo, and a Montague?"

I have a poem of the rose, I have no memory of reading another persons words of the rose. what makes the poem unique is in the way words can teach me about life and how special all of life can be, even to the mind. I will search my work and give for you to read if you will accept a privately owned work.

"A Dog By Any Other Name" is an episode of the Disney Channel Original Series That's So Raven.

Plot

Raven and Chelsea (along with Eddie) are invited to a popular classmate named Amber's party but Amber thinks that they'll come to her party together because they can't get dates. Raven tries to prove her wrong. Raven tries to get a date with a guy who doesn't even know Raven. Raven then has a vision of Chelsea meeting a new guy. Then her vision comes true. However, the problem is that the boy, Sam, is the same name of Chelsea's dog. Chelsea needs a date to Amber's party but she has a hard time putting the two apart so Raven and Chelsea try to give Sam a nickname Chelsea can call him. However, Sam isn't interested in Chelsea as it seems (according to one of Raven's visions). Meanwhile, Eddie must deal with sitting in the front of Mr. Lawler, a teacher who spits every time he talks.

Name of the poem:-

Apology To Gertrude Stein


A rose is not a rose.
'Rose' is a sound,
a word, a name,
an abstraction.
A rose is not a rose.
It just is.
And Gertrude Stein
is not Gertrude Stein.

Writen By:-

Robert M Wilson

It's not a poem, it's a quote from William Shakespeare - Romeo and Juliet.
