~~**~~

Toutes les roses qui étaient une fois

meurent

lentement un à un je regarde de la chute de pétales

frappant le sol amer

comment triste ils ne remarquent pas

le soleil

quand l'hiver arrive


~~**~~ ~~**~~
All the roses that once were

are dying

slowly one by one I watch petals fall

hitting
bitter ground


how sad they do not notice

the sun

when winter arrives


~~**~~
You're so vain
you probably think this
song is about you (CS)

how eloquent, Lauren, honestly.

This reminded me of one Christmas where it was warm here (I know) and we did not get any snow until Christmas Eve and I had, in full bloom, white roses.  Have a px of it someplace.  Lightly dusted in the first snowfall, it was amazing.

But other than that, no, they don't - nor do we.

... fallen,
in Winter's fare
only to bare to
the spring ...

and once more
should have
arose

where time is
life ...

smiling here ....
beauty of an orchid!

well written.

"And I can remember forever december
The center of dying, the heart of the pain
The rose in the bottle, the thorns in the bottom
The stars surround me, the cold astounds me"


"Forever December"
Tabitha's Secret


  




I'll bare the brunt of your long buried pain
I don't mind helping you out ...
But I want you to remember my name
