A rose for you

A rose hangs
On the door
And a number
Saying how long till
He returns

She can’t wait
To hear his voice
She has been waiting
Long enough

Since he left
Five years ago
He was traveling
Across the world

She can’t wait
To move forward
To have a real
Family with him

She gets a letter
From the mystery man
Saying “ I’ve been gone to
Long I hope you haven’t
Moved on.”

A roes hangs there
On the door
Then when
She comes home

It isn’t there anymore
She looks up
As it falls to
The floor

She thinks she sees
Him by the door
But she is not sure
Anymore

Than he takes
Her by the
Hand and says

“You’re the one
Thought of
On those long winter
Nights.” As a tear drops
From her eyes

I’ve missed you for so long
This doesn’t seem real
Then she realizes it’s
As it can be
He’s here to stay forever


Please tell me what you think.

I like the imagery in this one. However, there are some grammatical errors throughout. Perhaps you could re-read it and edit those so it reads better for everyone.

I agree with Mr. Hanson. You are getting better and better every day. I am really proud of you Becca.
