A rose I am

Pinned to the chest 
to keep abreast 
of all times..! 

To the lovers...

I am a declaration

Of their hearts to be united 
in their journey of life...! 

To the men of letters...

I am a decoration on their coats
to add dignity
with my beauty galore...! 

To the graceful swans....

I offer my essence of miracle...
glorifying their beauty

to ageless combating time..... 

To the tiny tots....

I offer my fragrance

opening the window of colours 
to paint their childhood bright...! 

To the wedded...

I offer my bouquets

to renew their vows of togetherness 
to strengthen with time...! 

To the departed...

I wreath a path

sprinkled with my perfume

in their journey to the other world...! 

A boon of a lifetime... 
forgetting the thorns

pricking my body...

Reminding me again and again 
of the pain in my joys.
