The Late Blossom
A dull green bud
Waits for the sun
Waits for the one
The one who will color her petals
She sits in darkness
Closed to the life
Closed to the strife
The strife that meddles
When she opens up
Her beauty shows
Her beauty knows
Her beauty finally settles
This radiant rose
The last to bloom
The last sweet perfume
The last to drop her petals
