past framed in flowers
rings slipped from fingers
poetry turned silent
silken repose
single white magnolia
in its crystal vase
remember oh sea
breathe whispers of deep slumber
forever to him

I am impressed with your "still life" photo.
Quite beautiful --- wonderful use of monochromatic grouping.
I love "silken repose" and "remember oh sea / breathe whispers of deep slumber."
Stunningly beautiful write. Something about it was so... playful... like a happy spirit who wants to remind her loved ones she's having a great time!

Experience of our past however painful it may be, will lead us forward in time toward infinity. In all the things we suffer and celebrate, there is a power beside us, so true, so great. We are never alone, we are never lost. We shall reach our destiny at all cost. Visions of our future, radiant and free, will carry us past infinity. Ack,
Chris
