Purple velvety petals
laid on the ground
fallen from the rose
tossed down without a sound
for once there was beauty
shining from this flower
but as time`s gone by
this rose has lost its power
a distant waft of scent
drifts across this place
where once we saw beauty
oh, so full of grace
so sad, this dying rose
as the petals fall away
scattered across the floor
not to see another day
inspired by a photo of a purple rose laying on the surface..dying.!
