To A Faded Rose

To a Faded Rose

by Maurice Switzer

To a Faded Rose is a poem that explores the themes of memory, loss, and the passage of time. The poem is addressed to a rose that has wilted and lost its beauty, and the speaker reflects on the ways in which our own memories and experiences can fade over time. The poem is a beautiful and moving meditation on the bittersweet nature of life and the importance of cherishing our memories.
