Petals fall

A rose is the visible result of an infinitude of complicated goings on in the bosom of the earth and in the air above, and similarly a work of art is the product of strange activities in the human mind. 

- Clive Bell 

 

Acrylics on canvas panel – 9″ × 12″ - unframed

Flower petals fall one by one

After the long day is done 

This flower has lived a good life 

With very little strife 

Memories of busy bees 

And images of little hands fingering it lovingly 

A lover’s purpose was in mind 

When it was picked from the vine 

Given to the one he loved 

As a token of all the things they’ve done 

Drooping low in the vase 

Is where it takes its resting place 

As its petals fall one by one 

One by one

- Bryanne Colver
