(I used types of roses for this write, including...
A Summer Dream of Summer Time, a Tequila Sunrise...

The old man sits by the window each and every day...
At times a smile erupts on his face...

Mother Nature, guardian of seasons,
a wave of her hand, a nod of her head...

She sits on the floor by her cedar hope chest,
filled over the years with letters, gifts, photos...

Sitting alone in her dark room,
another long night filled with gloom...

Rivers flow
currents know...

These three words, I love you,
eloquent, easy to say to another, yet wound...

Friends are always there,
Right when you need them the most...

Metamorphosis, renewal, change.
Dreams begin again, we rebound...

You are old before your time, my child.
Kind, full of compassion and concern...

Amid rumbling thunder and lightening,
in the darkest part of a stormy night...
