A Rose and A Thorn in Honduras Tale of Love and Escape
A narrator recalls a January trek in Span ish Honduras with friends, finding shelter at a planter’s house where Rosa, a beautiful native girl, captivates him. He aids a frightened mule, shares mornings in the garden, and parting at dawn he and his mule ride off, while a rival suitor Don Juan Juarez lurks. The memory endures as he sails home, pondering Rosa’s mystery.
