A blossom fell beneath an azure sky
Fluttering to the earth in silent swirls
Too soon it withers in silent agony
Sweet beauty lost in parched and rusty hues

Wrinkled and frail it is but a memory
Of unmatched splendor from a bygone day
Shed not your tears for the precious petal lost
Returned in death to nature’s waiting arms

The run was brilliant and unmatched
Instead rejoice in silent admiration
For the life so nobly lived my friend
And hope that yours will fare as well

the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost

OhPeggers~
It is soooo welcoming to read you this morning~

'A blossom fell beneath an azure sky
Fluttering to the earth in silent swirls
Too soon it withers in silent agony
Sweet beauty lost in parched and rusty hues


'silent agony' .... oh, how I like the imagery of this entire piece~

This makes me think of the flowering cherry blossoms I so enjoy every year. They last such a short while, but such pink delight they bring, those drifting harbingers of spring.

It will be soon now...

Peggers~

My heart reads this one again ...

'Wrinkled and frail it is but a memory
Of unmatched splendor from a bygone day
Shed not your tears for the precious petal lost
Returned in death to nature’s waiting arms

The run was brilliant and unmatched
Instead rejoice in silent admiration
For the life so nobly lived my friend
And hope that yours will fare as well'


... for I have had a petal fall from my life and am trying to find that 'rejoicing' place right now~

Thank you ... thank you~
