Thomas Mcferran Poet Free verse

All Your Beautiful Things

Now you are gone
and all your flowers have faded
what shall I do with your rose
which still yet lives, but jaded,

what shall I do with your flowers
which bled their lives away,
and every blade of grass
rain tipped this summer day.

Now you are gone
and I am in the field standing by a lonely sycamore
I’ll think of you, and you will come to me
my own true love, ma chérie d'amour.
