Wilt to Grow No body grows until it wilts another a parable from nature born by roses. A rose is a promise blossoming with charm watered in sacrifice to bear hope in beauty. It grows a calyx filled with love’s wine swirling around a sepal so divine. With stamens facing devotion’s sun it opens its petals to compassion’s fragrance. In the night it transpires care in dew droplets taking chances’ dare. Its petals shade tiny leaves torn between thorns and trials’ aphids. Winds of hurt blow its petals away exposing its sepal to death’s sway. Poise and brave it lets mishaps rave about a crumbling sepal seeding in a grave. Love is a rose saturated with life destined to wilt to give life. See the rose it’s how life rose to face death and cross over morrows. Author’s Notes: Genre: Free Verse Word Count:134 Words Inspired by: See this Rose! Most saturated with the water of life, now fully blossomed; It will of necessity wilt before all the other brides of the Garden. - Rumi Attachments:

I think your choice of a rose to use for your poem is a good idea. There is a lot of things we can use a rose to say. Should stay as a promise as you mentioned though
