Why you
This is one of the flowers from my trip to the Zoo.
I see the light to you my love its rays come down to me.
I sit an wait for you to come as you smile down on me.
I stumble in my mind each day for one moments hope.
That you will come down from above and kiss me once again.
I wait and wait I see you there your rays give me new hope.
I know your smiling down on me but a kiss is what I want.
I want to feel you in my arms the way I use to feel.
And then look in your stunning eyes and kiss your lips again.
I wait until I go to sleep to come to you each night.
But well aware that this is a dream the pain is twice as bad.
I wish for comfort from this pain that I might live again.
But each night that I go to sleep this dream with you brings pain.
I wake my pillows always stained with tears from missing you.
I wish that it was you that lived and me that should of died.

Amazing macro ….. and a weave of emotional expression that wrenches the readers heart briefly.
Grieving is a process that molds pain and sorry into eternal lines of acceptance. Thats the only way we can grow …. only if we let go!
Well done my friend….. your emotional eloquence is honestly expressive!

Magnificent capture of a beautiful orchid. I should like to think it reflects the beautiful memories
of the one so mourned. Very heart wrenching, well written, with beautiful photogaphy to go with.
I adore when poetry is combined with art and photography. You have quite the knack for both.
