inhaled sublime fragrance floating around me, imbibed radiance of the gleaming roses red gradually those flowers are losing their beauty, their lustrous sheen and hues diminishing instead on the floor parched petals lying hopelessly dead! my heart aches mournfully to see them gloomily fall eventually their shimmering petals on the floor but who can escape destiny's inevitable call, decay of a sublime beauty - never felt before life is transient and fleeting, a realization pure ~ wheel of daily life goes on - never stops does not wait for anyone to sob and cry poignant dreams do not disappear like dewdrops, grand aspirations reaching the sky never losing profound passion, soar high ~ February 28, 2022 A Brian Strand 1095 Poetry Contest FIRST PLACE

Hi Mala , like you I too feel saddened to see the sweet flowers withering away ! Everything is transient ! Nothing will stay forever. Still life goes on without stop and our aspirations soar high ! A meaningful and lovely quintain !

This is an splendid write. From beginning to end , you give justice to the theme of the poem with the gentle flow of the rhyme. You write well with dream theme. It's like a river flowing. Best wishes for the win. This goes straight to my FAVES.
