The last rose on earth
February 14, 2015
I saw the last rose on Earth
As red as the cheeks of a newborn
The crystal clear dew drops
Were slowly dripping off
The sweet fragrance so powerful
To destroy the smell of ten garbage trucks
It was a bright streak of color
Amonst the dead planet
Filled with gas and buildings
Without a shade of green
I saw the last rose on earth
Die right before me
In man's cruel hands
Plucked away from living
