Lone Petal
The petal of a rose once fell then drifted slowly through the trees. Upon the wind it tumbled long until it drifted up to me. At first, I saw no value there in just one petal all alone. But then I stooped and picked it up and found that it was still a rose. I felt its velvet touch my skin, as its...

When Death comes knocking at the door, And as the last petal finally falls, My voice will be stilled. My heart, now ticking off like a clock, Will ever be silent. My foot falls shall no more be heard All my songs will be stifled in the throat All my crazy thoughts will be frozen, And I shall take leave of all And the...

I recline with my cherry tree musings… a fountain of blossoms cherub cheek complected rise and curve from the ground up into a heaven and cloud scene to spread in splendor a festoon of blooms like cumulus puffs plucked from above and placed in tufts to fluff graceful branches plush with clusters the color of sunrise...

As I traverse the bleakness of the wasteland, my footsteps crush the cinnamon ground. Dry and brittle soil turns to desolate dust, swirls on the wings of the autumn wind. Some blows away from me despondent, some I collect in my weathered urn, and spread on the secluded skeletal roots of a blooming rose sapling, I rear...

Last week I cut a bouquet of flowers from my garden and now they’re withering. It fills me with melancholy memories about a time when my love was new and gently flowed within my heart. Time between bud to bloom and death of the once velvet petals has come too soon. I've watched their bright colors fade and frowned when some fell...

The last petal - the last grace
As the Autumn falls The jays sing A melody -a tale the old wives would sing While the sun fills the sky dripping With gold as honey to the brim I catch sight from my window Vines and creepyard twirling around the window sill As if they sing A song as sweet as demise or If it were the angels...

LAST PETAL
LAST PETAL Summer has been long and tiring All nature pushing on to the end Now as Autumn walks slowly by A few flowers still attempt to lie Reputations of beauty to defend But all know it’s time for retiring It’s a similar end, for one and all Each flower having had their day There’s no escape, Winter’s near Resigned to wait for another...

As the Last Petal Falls
softly it lingers, a breath in the air, a whisper of love, too fragile to bear-- the rose in your hands, once burning bright, fades in the hush of the fading light a crimson promise, a vow once made, wilting now in autumn’s shade-- yet love is not lost in petals torn, but in the echoes where hearts were worn so let it...

Bloom takes its hold
As the last petal falls, Fall chases out summer. Dead leaves drift into halls, Winds hum like a drummer. Days were spent very short, As long nights bring deep sleeps. Cold breeze came as escort To the houses it sweeps. Frost adorns windowpanes, While the coal fire glows. Golden fields brim with grains, Hens cluck as a cock crows. The last petal still swirls As the night air...

as the last petal falls onto silk sheets as the candles bloom with electricity as she shakes loose her virginity and beds her groom as his blood drains from his countenance doomed to her eyes her breasts her hips time and time again as the last petal falls from her pedestal pink roses of her youth his eyes still melt his heart beats fast his smile upticks until death consummates and pries the dynamic duo apart the shadow of roses falling she’s beyond...

I am the last petal on a rose and I hold on tight so my owner will be pleased and carry on with her delight My other petals are now gone all fallen from above the stem it was so sad to see them go reaching their bitter end But I hold strong encouraged by Glenn Hughes songs of love and laughter and pure happiness it...
