I dreamt you were dead, withered and dry
You left me alone without saying goodbye
Shrivelled and drooped you gave up on us
No longer proud, with strength I could trust
Your sweetness of smell, turned to a musk
Blood red of your colour, now memory just
My nightmare continues, it goes on and on
I can’t say goodbye, I’ve loved you so long
Tears they will fall, the memories may fade
But not for the moment, we still have today
Then on the compost, you’ll come back again
Feeding the good earth, how you’ll remain
But just for tonight, please stay here with me
My roses, my beauties, you showed love to me
