 Picture by Alan Ayers * * * There was a time you'd bring me flowers Each and every week I would reward you with a kiss Which you would so eagerly seek Freesias were my favourite In the early days of Spring With a fragrance oh so heavenly So much joy did your blooms bring Sometimes you brought me roses On the days when I felt blue You filled my life with color How very much I once loved you Throughout the seasons our love blossomed Into a beautiful bouquet Until you so cruelly broke my heart On the day you went away Now my heart feels cold and empty And my vase is void of flowers I sit lost within my memories As I wile away the hours Alone here in my solitude I wonder where our love went wrong I have no one to bring me flowers How very sad now was my song I am in motion |

Now my heart feels cold and empty And my vase is void of flowers I sit lost within my memories As I wile away the hours Alone here in my solitude...yes I know that feeling. Take a walk through your beautiful gardens and gift yourself with their beauty, Sue. (If I remember correctly from the past you have lovely gardens) *s M |

Sue that was so well writen, beautifully crafted but I could feel the pain and sorrow. I'm sorry you have so much hurt. I'll be looking for more of your work in here. MERRY CHRISTMAS! Tony. |

I guess I should have made it clear that this writing was pure fiction and it was not written from personal experience. I am sorry for misleading anyone. Thank you all so very much for your friendship and kind words. I wish you all a wonderful Christmas and a New Year filled with lots of love and happiness. Take care.........Sue I am in motion |

Okay, Sue -- you outdid yourself on this one. How on earth did you put that heavenly music on the poem and who was it? BEEEEEE well. [This message has been edited by iliana (12-18-2003 12:59 AM).] |

Hello iliana I can't take credit for the music. As you will see, the music was courtesy of chinestone who included the music with her lovely comment. Thank you for taking the time to read this.
