The petals in pink and yellow lovely hue Rubbed my hands and turned to be a silken cloth, They wilted, falling to the stones too fast And they left a rug burn on me, At the realize of your pass. It brought back my recollection Of your closeness to perfection. I can’t grieve it all when I’m just tending To my suaved, still burning, soul. I can’t live when you have died Because your life’s what made me full. I was swiped across a matchbox When the sun brought forth the dawn Because I saw your roses blooming, Though you have long been gone. - And so it was that time stood still - |

Alyssa: if it helps , when I moved into my house My gram had roses - I thought of them as precious - so so precious - to think that her hands had tilled the soil that mine did and smelled the same flowers . . . I added myself to her gardens and wouldnt change that for the world - I know thats what she wanted . . . all I have to do is look at the beauty I kept of her alive . . . and smile Blessings to you xxoo [This message has been edited by littlewing (06-09-2003 08:08 PM).] |
