The red petal

Fallen petal in my garden
Lonesome Red petal
a piece of the tree
is now fallen
And free

Bathed in the
Dew drops, pure as glass
Served and protected
by loyal blades of grass

It retains its colour
Vivid and true
Unaware it’s fallen
And would never be new

In decay
It glows
What it is
It shows

Its fallen
Yet it remains
With its colour
the mind it stains

Soon
The petal
would cease to be
Dissolved in life
no longer be there
For everyone to see

It had fallen
Separated
And free
Dissolved in the mud
Would seep back
Into the tree
