Broken Wings Wept Upon Memories

"Merely whispers, never idle, she strolls ceaselessly, creating passionately." Quote by poet

She wanders,
lost in the soft glint
of the scene.
Floral scent,
blowing her wild auburn hair,
it whispers bird songs.

A white path,
Till front of mom’s tomb.
On her knees
quietly
wept upon spring rainbow blooms
Mom safe in her heart.

A wee girl,
silent in lush green
memories
of worn pages.
Candles dance, as Mom and Dad
watch the graceful swans.

Reason A. Poteet April 3, 2026 at 7:41 AM A most treasued, honorable gift from God Himself - the ability to remember. So sad, to hear of those with dementia/Alzheimers who have lost this treasured art.... Even sad memories inspire hope - been mulling over the old song, Whispering Hope and the chorus: {Whispering Hope oh how welcome thy voice, making my heart in its sorrow, rejoice.} Good to interact with your piece here. Congratulations on a lovely shadorma.
