Rose Requiem
Reflection
In slumber, she is surrounded by the beauty of red roses,
A serene and peaceful scene, a moment of stillness.
The roses, a symbol of love and passion, entwine her form,
As if holding her close, in a gentle, loving norm.
Her lips, a deep crimson, a subtle, sensual smile,
Invite the viewer to pause, and linger for a while.
The soft, flowing hair, a wild tangle of gray,
Framing her face, a picture of beauty, in a gentle way.
The contrast of red and black, a dramatic, moody hue,
Creates a sense of mystery, and a story anew.
In this moment, she is free, unencumbered and light,
A vision of loveliness, a wondrous, peaceful sight.
