Roses of Crepe Paper
Drying, fading
changing texture
becoming paper
holding their shape.
Roses of crepe paper
in the vase before me
not silk, not rice paper
softer, stiffer than that.
The bouquet, each blossom,
holding life still, but
progressing toward paper
a permanent state.
Soon dying, fading
changing texture
roses of crepe paper
to hold, to touch.
