"A thing of beauty is a joy for ever:
Its loveliness increases; it will never
Pass into nothingness . . "
~ John Keats (from Endymion)

John Keats is fooling us or was that a plastic rose? (just kidding). Lovely rose with that dark red color Lyn.

How long does it last?... ☺

Dark and sultry, with a bit of mischief included.

Wonderful post Lyn. It is so hard to understand the going home early of a beautiful soul...

They are so beautiful, so dark they are almost black and velvety. Fine shot. I saw that color rose just the other day as a friend had 3 of them come out on a cluster on her rose bush. They really gorgeous.

Wonderful tribute and we just had the same experience in our family LE.
My mother tells of some solace someone gave her when her father died too young at 50.
"God picks the rosebuds right along with the roses," he told her. She just mentioned that to me again the other day when we lost someone much to young.

I wish I was a Glow Worm, a Glow Worm's never glum, 'cause how can you be grumpy, when the sun shines out your bum?

Very sorry for this loss, Lyn.

Although I don't know the person who's live ended far too soon, I can clearly see that you've put all feelings of compassion in this beautiful work.

An appropriate tribute to express your feelings of empathy.

Long before the white man and long before the wheel, when the dark green forests were too silent to be real. Lightfoot 1967
