The Last Rose of Summer

One of my favorite musicians (Keller Williams) is running a content on his Facebook page. Winner gets some great perks for his upcoming show in Denver.

The contest is simple: Post a picture, quote, video, or something else that shows how you feel about fall.

This is my entry.

The Last Rose of Summer




This
is the very last rose of the season.
It's going to fall soon,
but what a gift that it will be
munched up
snowed on
decomposed
recomposed
and made into a spring rosebud.
All we have to do is wait. 






(I've also been listening a lot to Elvis Costello's "Might Like a Rose" quite a lot lately. Full album on YouTube here.)
