Snow On the Flowers
Snow on the Flowers
Take this statue; I want
Someone with you all the time.
Our Lady of Fatima is cold.
This place is cold.
Isn’t snow in spring
The way it’s supposed to be?
Weren’t you spring?
Eagerly on the brink
Never to be explained
Except here where Our Lady
Stands frozen in time with you
Waiting for the snow to melt.

We placed a statue of Our Lady of Fatima at my daughter's grave.
And of course a cat. We thought the cat made sense and so did
our Jeannie I'm sure.
