A single rose

universe of its own

carrying life and beauty

never alone

Conveying emotions

each life is a gift

to express romance

or give someone a lift

Feeding the bees

as they spread life

a dance of celebration

happiness without strife

In field spreading

beauty across the land

multiple colors

looking quite grand

Dried petals

leaving a fragrant scent

in a bowl

a lovely accent

A universe

one that is quite old

love and grace

eternally to hold
