The scent of positivity


Though it’s late in the season, 
The rose is still an optimist, 
Sending forth new buds 
And opening her petals to the waning sun 
As it slides lower in the sky. 
Though dark approaches, she still breathes 
Her gift of hope, the scent of positivity 
 To ease the hearts of those of us who fear 
The darkness may be winning 
And the light 
May never come again.
