Pink winter debris in my path.
Closer I came to see a rose!
My finger touched its cold soft petal.
What was its story?
A wedding boutonniere dropped?
One of a dozen pink roses?
Tea coloured tear drops seemed
a sad touch to this fallen blossom.
“There is simply the rose; it is perfect every moment of its existence.”
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
