_______________________________________

a fragrant red rose, dulcet and perfumed soft with sun kissed petals, rich and dripping sweetness gently I carry her to you my precious and treasured one while melodious birds sing songs in low tweets and chirps and rose is wilting in my hand as she hangs her head dying as I weep and lay her on the garden grave of my beloved cat
