I'm like a faded rose
Whose petals fall
Waiting for a call
that never comes
Strange how fleeting
Time can be
Months turning into years
Taking with it tears
But roses bloom again
And when petals curl
To catch the dew
That's when I think of you.

bflagsstabout 15 years agobut more people use greeting cards to say something to someone they love then poetry. I wish I wrote greeting card verse, then millions of people might read my words. If I were the author of this I'd submit it to Hallmark or something, get paid serious cash for a top of the line poem. It takes a very skilled poet to walk the line between freshness and cliche. congrats.
Epmd607about 15 years agoi should of disliked this poem because of the plain speech and simple rhyme, the sorta "somewhere I have heard this before" but your poem is free of cliche, and in my book that means all it has to do is express something. Good job.
