Gardening Sorrows ~*Marge Tindal*~   Among the rows of blooming flower rise moistened-mounds in sorrow's hour Tilled and toiled until they lay drenched in tears upon the day~ Shed of dread in teardrops spread among the wilting of flowers' bed Harvested sorrow of yesteryear's bouquet fragranced-memories within the heart lay~ Memories kept in seeded bloom planted in the heart's garden room Please, please, come again Spring with the blossoming that his memories bring~ *For my sister, Lori, in remembrance of Dr. Kent A. DeLong ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

Hmmmm...I liked this! Sad---I didn't read the last part the first time over. But I got the message...*sigh* And I agree...sad, depressing peices tend to be the best. Beautifully sad.... Others are too in love with the sound of their own voice to speak the truth... [This message has been edited by Android 17 (02-05-2002 11:46 AM).] |

Delicate flowers need special attention, and sorrows are the clouds that block our sun and drown our thirsts. I felt each line, each drop. Well written and well heard. |

Time may make grief less wrenching But years still find tears drenching Everything around at the thought of the loss... Love is forever on hearts embossed. Marge, you've written this beauty with love and tenderness and caring and understanding... I'm sure Lori will treasure this touching tribute. Hugs for you both. *S* [This message has been edited by suthern (02-07-2002 11:49 AM).] |

Sweet, sad but filled with beauty and a glimmer of hope. Dan Death comes not when we cease to breathe, but when we cease to dream. |
