Tears In My Garden

I walked along the garden paths The wind in my face Calling me the fool And here I am dreaming, is she near? Being young, I believed, That love always triumphs And now I wander among roses so red A fool who once believed I smell the fragrance of blossoms long gone I feel the wind, saying time to move on This empty bench, is where I sit To shed all these lonely tears In my garden

L'amour fait toujours souffrir, surtout si on ne peut pas arreter le temps...

You get a 7 on this one. It is just beautiful. There does come a time when we do have to move on. Thanks for reading my Spanish poem. I was really surprised that you could read spanish, that's great. It is also in English and I have another one in Spanish too. Thanks for sharing your beautiful poem.... Lucilla.
