A Flower A sweet red rose What a transformation Through which it goes. On their slim throats With hue of passion Stands silent grace, Like elegant fashion. The night shades and reshades- Come day, and then the go, Their beauty slowly fades- They hang their heads... As if they know. They wilt and weep Like lovers lost- Who'll risk and leap At any cost And the shell of what They used to be Holds such Intricate simplicity. |

The comparison between the life of a flower and the life of a love was very nice. *s When you think you have heard it all, |

Shades and reshades.....that's one sweet transitional image. Darn, I wish I'd thought of that! You have an excellent feel for the way a poem needs to move within its frame. I'll look forward to seeing more from you. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

welcome to Passions, I really love this poem, it describes my favorite flower so perfectly.  Sometimes we have to follow a stronger voice, even if it's silent. |
