We bloom at different times
Scenting the air with the aroma of new
Petals supple and silky to the touch
When spring clouds weep
We catch them on our petals
to adorn them like diamonds
We had thorns
To deter the ill repute
Who could not wait till our bloom had matured
Oh, we were full of ourselves
The bee’s would hover
In temptation to take the perfect one
The wind was our
Partner in crime
Swaying us to natures beat.
Oh, to remember the days
Of when we were all new roses









This is excellent Fia!
Well done chica:)

Thank you Damian 😊
Oh damn, girl! This is a brilliant piece of writing. Not only the idea of roses, but each stage and facet of their existence…and we are indeed like them! 🌹
Yes we are. Thank you Willow 🩷
It’s a shame we can’t be new roses longer. We get older and look back at how we could have dome things better. But alas, we start to wilt and time goes on until we are dust once again. Good one Fia.
Thank you, Tim, if we could be roses longer.;))
