The Rose

A beautiful red rose stands alone
Each petal is flawless on its stem
And perfuming a scent all its own
Something so perfect can not die
It is an elegant gift from nature
But a rose survives only for a time
Sad that such a blossom will wilt away
One can count the blades as they drop
One, two, three perish on the overlay
For each leaf that falls, a heart is broken
The rose bears a powerful magic
A demeanor that is not easily forgiven
Love and beauty are its arrogance
Never doubt the potencies of a rose
It is the favor of everlasting romance
At last the final flake dies on the tray
The flowers beauty ended sorrowfully
As a teardrop washed it slowly away.

I love how you give the rose such control.
