She lives in a country, which has six months of darkness. Though she is accustomed to nights, she yearns for the sun. The dim street lamp illuminates the garden, from where a lone rose stands out. While admiring the rose, she hopes it would live to see the sunlight.
Your unmatched glow
Lights the darkest of nights
I pray you live forever

A sad touch to this poetic tribute…and one finds oneself hoping the flower does make it to the summer…tried accessing this through the link but couldn’t. I can link it again if it doesn’t work.
Thank you, Pirate..don’t know if this came out as expected, but thank you for the kind comment. tried linking it twice already..don’t know why there is no access…
A 6-month wait for sunlight —- so she makes do with street light.
Wow! Some things we do take for granted.
True..Thank you so much:)
