Silently we sit unaware
as your dream of a rose
garden is removed
each rose a fragrant gift
a quiet prayer
uprooted now
in the stillness
of words unspoken
I experience your loss
your vision
of colorful petals that
provide sweet perfumed
air
each passing by a
meditative prayer
Silently we sit unaware
of this action
that cuts
like the thorn
you bear the loss
with regalness
I wipe a tear

..each rose a fragrant gift
a quiet prayer
uprooted now..
so poetically expressed.
and sad that the dream was cut. :(
Too many dreams die silently, fading to nothingness without even a mourner. This dream, at least, has a monument in poem.
Hi Pauline
fragant words
gently breeze
fragant words
fill the air
katie,a cry is often beneficial.
bill, thank you for the birthday wishes for the USA. Hope all is well up north :)
mystic rose,:(
quilldancer, a monument, that is a rather big statement and I humbly thank you...Where are you on your travels, for I am wishing you well.
quasar, thanks for stopping by :)
Oh, so sad.
lol Pauline,
that's why I didn't use that headline
Fixing as in fixing on, pinpointing where they may be on the map of the universe,
as opposed to fixing broken jewellery in the repair shop, after all black holes like blackpearls make beautiful strings of pearls too
sad indeed. Felt a deep sad memory trying to cause involuntary tears. Do we all go through this some times?
crying can be beneficial... but sometimes.... the rain can settle in our hearts...
goldenib...a smile to balance the tear :)
quasar, thanks for clarifying that term.
ghost particle, Yes we all do experience the same range of emotions.
katie, the rain can settle in our hearts....beautiful line.
Oh for pete's sake; they just weren't getting enough sun!
