Like a rose,
I rise to meet the sun
The wind, a kiss upon my brow
Let the warm y'low glow of the sun
Open a new path to my soul
The rose
Is my Gift to me this day
A gift to you if you will have it
A rose for me, a rose for you
I will let go and let life
I will bow to the sun as it does kiss the rose
Love is what I make it
Love is the warm glow of my life
As a new day yet does dawn
So too, a new bud will yet open
Each new bud a new gift
Oh let the sun come to my life
May it warm and open up my soul!
May each soul feel free, and be free to kiss the sun and rose!

Very Nice! I especially loved the last line! May you receive this type of love your entire life Novel!
Are you getting these new images on dischord ? They are great quality! 🥀🥀🥀👏🖼☺️
I love how simple, yet clever and beautiful this is! Fine work!
Beautifully written & loved it!!!
I loved your poem! Yellow rose is mainly used for friendship. So was this poem supposed to be about love between friends?
Brilliant and Beautiful piece✨😉📝Yellow is My favorite color 🎨 💛🌼⭐
Whiplash! Whiplash going from your previous jewel to this; however, I love it. My favorite lines are "The wind, a kiss upon my brow/Let the warm y'low glow of the sun..." and "Love is what I make it..." Bravissimo!
Really good entry to that contest
Great wordplay.
Beautiful 😍💐
