THE ROSE

Hello beautiful,
Such a surprise,
finding you this morning,
naked in crystal,
surrounded by crimson petals.
You did your part flawlessly,
sharing your ineffable, scented self.
You were really a bundle of tears,
weren't you?
Tell me you wept out of loneliness,
and not for humanity, because
our struggle is beyond your care,
and we've not yet found our way.

(sometimes you come across a scene so incredibly arresting, you can't help but stop and cast a net of words around it)
