A Farewell With a Token of Gratitude

A farewell with a token of gratitude...

To my dear Rosies,
For the thousand colorful blooms, you gave, 
For the everlasting fragrance, you showered on us, 
For the happiness you brought us,
A pool of gratitude floods my heart!

With the sorrowful sighs so quiet,
With the teary eyes that drowns my soul,
With nature’s cruel separation of our bond,
forced, I bid you farewell my dears!

Sleep now under the snowy blankets of winter,
With the warmth of love and care, I gave you,
Drown your sorrows in the hopes and dreams,
of the joyous tomorrows that await your return!

With  open arms and an anxious heart,
awaits you here a poor soul counting the days,
Full of hope in nature’s promises of rebirth,
Till we meet again in the spring of the year to come.
