A Petal of Life

Drifts amidst the seashore floating a cherished memory Crumbled and close in creased palms crimson silk on weathered cheeks Scents of everlasting reaching out and coming back to get me Petals life holding on a heartbeat you're a part of me

This write is as soft as the velvety petal of a rose, Tim, and just as sweet.

Good Morning Tim. I'm sorry its been so long since I've turned to your page. This entry is poetry in the truest sense and expression. Yes it is. Yes too it is an entry that must be read out loud with emphasis. You are a marvelous writer. Thank you for sharing your work. Well done in its entirety. Enjoy the morning and day.

Tim, I like how you wrote this. Had a few petals myself, all but one lost the grip.
