Today I adorned my bed with sheets of roses, patterned everywhere with their unfurling petals of blue, cerise and pink. Roses, with their heady or delicate or spicy fragrance, will invade my dreams as I lie, crushing them beneath my nakedness. When I toss restlessly their satin softness will caress my skin with sweet remembrings of long-dead love. Or will that be? Will I feel only the sharp stabbing of their thorns the leathery scrape of saw-toothed leaves?
And isnt that like life when we look back on love, do we remember sweetspiced softness, or do we know again the pricking of the bruising hurts that so indelibly imprint our hearts? Is it the words, all honeyed sweetness, we recall, or the harsh volleys of denial, disavowal?
It is no wonder that the color called ashes of roses is what it is; for when I look back on love, I see its muddied shade defiling that once-clear and constant crimson. 2012 RC deWinter
