The Last Summer Days of the Rose Fairy
As the warm days of summer slowly turned into the cooler whispers of autumn, the Rose Fairy, Amara, could feel the change in the air. Her garden, once a vibrant sea of color and sweet fragrance, had begun to settle into a calm stillness. The other flower fairies had already danced their last dances, bidding farewell to the blooms they had nurtured all season. But Amara remained, her delicate wings glowing in the soft light of the setting sun.
Amara was the keeper of the roses, the last of the summer flowers to bloom. Each evening, she would flutter gently through her rose garden, tending to the last few blossoms that still clung to the warmth of the season. She knew that soon, these too would wither, and her work for the year would be done.
During these final days of summer, Amara spent her time making sure every rose had a peaceful rest. She gathered their petals as they fell, tucking them into the earth with a promise to return when spring awakened. Her heart ached with a bittersweet joy, knowing that the cycle of life would continue, even as the world grew quiet around her.
As the last rose began to close its petals for the final time, Amara whispered her thanks to the summer for its beauty and warmth. She rose into the cool evening sky, her wings carrying her away from the fading garden, to rest with the other fairies until the first signs of spring would call her back to her beloved roses once more.
