When I Leave When I leave I’ll leave a flower It has more power than a stone I’ll leave it in the morning’s dower To touch you when you’re all alone I’ll leave you with its grace of awe Covered in the morning’s dew To look upon its beauties store No greater gift can I give you For a flower holds a true suspend It grabs the senses all in one It gives you pleasure to its end Nectar that is never done And e’er a sorrow would you cry Within the now and then of store I’ll take it as a simple sigh And wish you well from out its core Take the flower dole it well This is where my soul does dwell |

Smiling with you...I remember a Michael Martin Murphy song about a flower... only it had a different ending...but you, you made me think of it, and smile. Good Sunday Morning, Sy! |

A poem surely to be treasured by your Isabel Belle. You are so loving and sweet. You have the soul and the heart of a poet ~ and I suppose that is to be expected from a poet's poet...  By the way, dear sonneteering tumbleweed! You better stick around for many more years! This may be selfish of me, but I need my daily dose of your poetic offerings! Lovely write ~ from a lovely man. To eternal love & Light, EA |

Sunshine You are shining in my room today.  Earth Angel With sunshine streaming in my room And you upon the harp I would not think to use the broom And wrap me in a tarp.  Nancy Black current tea would be just the thing this morning. |

Sigh ... Sy! Your tender heart shows so beautifully here in these melancholic lines. YOU are the flower she cherishes forever ... Love, Margherita |

Seymour~  I will hold your flowered words as beauty in the knowing That wherever you might be I would someday be going~ Until we meet again in the garden of after-flowers I will treasure the word-scent of you as I traipse the poetic bowers~ And in the beauty you have left for me I will know that I have known a flower from the heart of thee~ *Huglets* dearest poet gardener  ~*Marge*~ ~*When the heart grieves over what it has lost, |

Marge, To me you are a special flower With hugs that hold a special power. Your words and picture flatters me And if I can they'll go with me.  |
