Last night I dreamt in color
Of dark gray sky with scars
Left by the fallen stars
Which landed in my hand
And turned into a flower
And blossomed on my land

Her petals moist with dew
I could not help but stare
Her fragrance filled the air
The flower reached for light
She looked so real and true
Her beauty seized my sight

I could not turn my head
I could not get enough
I knew I was in love
I sat there on my porch
And she was all I had
The flower let me watch

The flower let me touch
The flower let me tame
I gave her a new name
And I would call her Rose
She liked the name so much
For me she’d strike a pose

She loved to be admired
It gave her purpose to exist
She’d dress up in the mist
It kept her warm like fur
And all that I desired
Was to remain with her

Last night I dreamt in color
I woke up from the sun
My Rose was long time gone
Although I held her tight
My love could not restrain a flower
What dreams may come tonight!

I fell in love and kept on falling

I'm glad you liked it. I wrote this poem when I was only 13, but it still is one of my favorites.
