To save the memory, the day, the meaning.
It's much more than just a flower.
The nostalgia that is tied to these fading petals is power.
It's capable of stealing my breath.
I remember when I flipped their world upside down & hung these three roses.
They were symbols.
Interlaced and butterflies.
They so eagerly waited for me
They have lost all color, they are brittle.
Much like the memories.
Yet still, it represents more than just a Perennial.
We all have rose petals in our lives, do we not?
Things that used to define our happiness & remind us to push forward,.
Now they are just dried up weeds.
Cold, lifeless & upside down.
Don't let your mind fool you with symbols and empty words.
Enjoy symbols, cherish memories, but see today.
