The tower of your heart
A lighthouse searching
Time laden mist
Veils
The unforgettable

The banners blazing
Caught in the wind flowing
The voices rise, singing
The echoes dying in the hills
A defeat
For ever having fought

Impregnable
Insatiable
The eyes that saw to the heart of this

The sighing
Trapped in the branches
As a season drifts
The long grass dancing
Remembering

A statue with
Arms asunder
From the valley
Yearning
For ivory pinnacles

A pale lonely beauty
An everlasting rose
Pink hued petals fading
Each immortal moment
Forgetful
The trumpet call dies
The sun passing
Blood red hills
A cold white tower
Silence
Artificial star light

I usually don't like poems about roses since they are a bit overdone.  However, this one works.

Still, I find it hard to get excited over roses.

thanks for the read
