Roses and You (In Loving Memory of Charles) I close my eyes and feel you embracing me the sound of your voice is the music of my days your words of love are my lullaby at night I drift away on memories of times we shared how you softened the days with promise scattered stars in my eyes placing around me a veil of hope you scented my emotions opening them up and filling them to overflowing like a bouquet of blooming roses each one unique and each so very fragile . . . so like our love now you’re gone from me yet, forevermore when I see roses I will feel embraced by you. |

May your world be rife with roses. The love that Charles and you shared lives on forever for love is energy and energy may change in form but it cannot ever be destroyed. God bless you both. What you had ~ and still have ~ is very special. Your poem affected me deeply. EA |

Don't take this amiss, but "Who might EA be?" Well, how much time do you have available for me to answer? EA is our Earth Angel. She is one of the kindest, most compassionate, giving people on the planet. She has been extremely and very dangerously ill, but her health has been slowly turned around by many miracles. If you will, read the 255 messages on my thread to her on Announcements, and then you will have a tiny bit of an idea as to who EA is. Smiles. Owl |

Melts my heart at the end. Trully Romantic, beautifully written with a careful and fine selection of words. |

Sounds like you are a very lucky lady to have had that kind of love, Marcia, and it continues on through your beautiful poetry. Ida |

Marcia, I meant to say what a beautiful love poem this is to Charles, but I was taken aback that there was anyone on the planet who didn't know who Earth Angel is, and was too busy letting you know who she is! Smiles. In re-reading a whole lot of your poetry and that of others this evening, I realised that I hadn't said anything about your poem! Sorry about that! Smiles. Owl |
