Upon meeting you
a simple posy of love
was laid at my feet.
Each Spring
a new bud would bloom,
as the strong, yet delicate aroma
joined us ever closer together.
But death will not wither
what transcends time or space.
Now, each Spring, I tend your blossoming grave.

Divinely romantic and well worded. This one makes me heave a sigh at the beauty of it. The ending had a nice twist of fate there and really touches the heart. Strong piece.

Beautiful images accompany your words with the joy of loving outweighing the sadness of loss.
Love Margaret
