I wish the petals of this rose will always stay beautiful and remain in place in nature's amazing arrangements. But when the time comes, it can't hold itself anymore ; the petals will drop one by one leaving the stem which slowly turns brown but the thorns will still prick. Nevertheless, its sweet scent lingers in the air.

Israr has been a "friend" of mine for a good while now. In fact, we just did a poem collaboration together with 26 other blog friends. I have yet to post the poem on my blog. He can tell fiction like no other & I'm always entertained whenever I visit him.
Thanks for taking the time to visit, comment & follow. I sincerely appreciate it. I always try to return the kindness & have become your newest follower too. I hope you'll come visit me again soon!
thoughts Of Beauty In The Stillness Of Dawn
Hi Balqis :)
ReplyDeleteWe seem to pass each other often on comments from mutual friends here on Blogger. I'm glad I decided to take a peek at your lovely blog!
A single red rose is my favorite and this is such a perfect one you have chosen to display here :) Your words are equally as lovely and very true. I often wish that the beautiful petals didn't have to die and fall off :)
A pleasure meeting you here,
Best Wishes,
Fiona

ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your beautiful comments. You put a poetic touch to it that makes me want to read it again and again.
You're welcome! It's my pleasure to visit your blog again. I was awed by the excellent and beautiful posts in your blog.
Israr is a humorous person. He writes brilliantly. Some of his posts never fail to make us smile while some make us ponder. I'm looking forward to reading the poem collaboration you did with him and the rest. :)
@Lady Fiona - Welcome to my blog! It's so nice to see you here. Sometimes we crossed paths but neither you nor I have visited each other before this! Thank you so much for being here. It's my pleasure to return your visit.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your nice comments. Where there is a beginning, there is an ending. That happens to every living thing. :)
What amazes me is that the process is quick. I wish they lasted for more time.
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful!
though the beauty of a single rose may fade or wither..the memories having it from someone will always linger forever ;)
ReplyDelete@Ana - It would be nice if it lasts a little while longer. We admire the beauty but just for a while. Thanks, Ana. :)
ReplyDelete@Sie - From another perspective, it is as you said. Who could forget it especially from a loved one? Thanks, Sie. :)
ReplyDeleteWe come and go and so beauty appears and disappears in time! That's the essence of life, everything has the limited exposure with the place we are given the chance to express ourselves and appreciate what life is all about over the surface. We are always part of it, but our days to play the biggest role of our existence is not forever...
ReplyDeleteThat's the reality of life, Prime. Everything fades with time which shows a complete cycle of life. Thank you so much for you well-explained comments. :)
ReplyDeleteLovely thought, Balqis. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot, Vinati. Welcome to my blog! :)
ReplyDeletehi balqis, sad...the fading of such a beautiful rose, but the fragrance lingers..the fragrance is the essence..
ReplyDeleteYes,Wan, it's really sad. Literally speaking, when something which is a beauty to our eyes slowly fades away, the effect it has on us is unbearable. But we can't fight the law of nature. Thank you so much for your nice comments.
ReplyDeleteWhen outside beauty fades, inner beauty got revealed - this one is eternal.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Marie, for your sweet response. Loved your explanations. :)
