A Faded Rose
© By Nanci Rubin


The rose that once had been so perfect.
Petals pleading to be touched,
fragrant with the most Heavenly bouquet.
This rose, reminiscent of another life,
was found in quiet repose,
pressed between pages of poetry.

No better place for interment
than resting in the loving arms of favored.
sonnets whose lines will recapture her beauty in verse.
The essence of rose and love will ever live on in my heart,
just as the bearer of the rose has all these many years.

This dried, crumpled, lifeless rose is all that remains of our love.
I cannot now resurrect this rose, nor our love,
but for some reason I feel the need to try.
Failures are sometimes second chances.

Gently closing the book that contains my faded rose
and the tangible symbol of our love.
I put upon the shelf all our hopes and dreams
to wait once more for another place,
another time.

Remember me with kindness, mon chou à la crème.

Yeah - apologies for taking so long. Had to wait for the right moment (read - home alone). Shame the makeup didn't show in the photo...( I always go for the natural look with my makeup - probably should have applied it in a more grotesque manner...)

James.

Geez,

Just looking at that photo again with the rose & card, thats there a pretty full set of lips.

Don't know where Lou is today I have not seen him at all.

John

Good job James ---- I think xman's 6 laughing dudes (is that a record?) proves it.
Way ta go mate. .


Justin

Waiting on Lou's reply I guess.

I haven't laughed this hard in YEARS!!! My wife just came in and asked me if I was OK!!! .... she left shaking her head.


John warned me to expect something, and you certainly didn't disappoint.

(and that's ONLY because I can only use 6 images)

well done, sir!

-Lou

No worries Lou - I got the laugh of my life when I received my rose at work. The guys at the store house didn't understand. But then, they've never been to Paris in spring....

James.

good is an understatement................
