A Rose

A Rose
The petals of the Rose fall gently to the ground.
Once ever so fragrant and in it`s own full beauty.
Standing tall with all it`s elegance.
Thorns saying.....Look but don`t touch.
Some have wandered by and stopped to enjoy it`s sweet smell and beauty.
While others never take the time.
A symbol of Love, Friendship, Admiration, Loss.
Each having our own favorite color.
Along with our own special memories.
Close your eyes.
I know you can smell the rose.
Inhale..........
