I've some time at the moment, so I did try another sonnet. Must keep trying.


Will you remember me, when I am old
Remember all the things I've ever done
And tell along the stories you've been told
The stories of my life, which have long gone

Cause they have worth for someone, I am sure
The life I lived, I did not live in vain
Go tell them how I loved my roses pure
In early mist, with little drops of rain

And when I'm gone, don't grieve too much my dear
For I was happy in so many ways
So keep the humor that I loved to hear
Cause with the humor, also laughter stays

Though my life has reached almost september
I won't be old, 'til I pass december




A rose is a rose is a rose...I guess...

Hi there, thanks for reading.

I've a question: What does sound better:

"Cause they are worth to someone" or,
"Cause they have worth for someone"???

Don't know, struggling with my English.

This is a very beautiful sonnet, Titia

"cause they have worth for someone" sounds much better.
