Every Rose Dies

Missing image


Every rose dies
As each petal falls

Like a silent lonely cry
That’s how nature calls

Crinkled amongst the earth
Blown with dust and sand

Life next year give birth
As the rose blossoms again

With its vibrant color
It feeds on the sun

Like earths mother
As the cycle again runs

Every rose dies
As each petal falls

Like a silent lonely cry
That’s how nature calls

    So beautifully sad! You did a wonderful job here my friend. Your words here are so true. Great thought for this lovely part of nature that we call the rose.

    I like the way you have captured the cycle of nature -- as well as the cycle of human nature. This also applies well to the cycle of love, one love may leave, but then another love is reborn.

    Well done.

    okay

    It could have been better. It had a lot of potential to be great by some of the syntax and rhyming just seemed make shift. thanks for writing though

    I like that. I especially liked the repetition of the beginning at the end. I've actually used that same technique in some of my own poems. the flow was pretty nice as well, and, all in all, i really enjoyed reading it. great job, keep up the awesome work.

    WOW. Very intense. It is true every rose does die, but the memory and that which it symbolizes shall always stay within the heart. That is the thing that must always be remembered. Excellent poem. It really touched me.
