    Yellow Roses

    The summer morning brings dew to the petals
    Of the fragile, budding rose;
    Whose leaves reach out for the embrace the of the light,
    Drying the tears from their faces.

    For the yellow bud that blooms with the spring
    Remind me of a past friendship;
    From the endless summer that was long gone,
    Known as an age without hardship.

    Shades of red at the tip of the petals
    Tell me how this friendship will alter;
    But the flower still closed, oh so tightly,
    And I fear that I might falter.

    Foolish as I was, I plucked my young rose,
    Just to keep her love for my own.
    My rose, my love, never bloomed, just wilted,
    Wilting with beauty never shown.

    In the darkness, my rose-less shrub stood there;
    Unrequited and unreturned.
    Her love for me now lifeless and shriveled,
    And left me with a lesson learned.
     
    Mm, you're an unfamiliar face.

    'Whose leaves reach out for the embrace the of the light,'

    Awkward wording. Other than that..pretty good. I especially love the last stanza..fits perfectly. Poem overall was very 'pretty.' *not much of a poetry critic*

    Nice job, Mister Flames~
