Edward Ibeh Poet Etheree

Notes About The Poem

Garden of Broken Dreams

he

                         couldn't

                     send her fresh

                     forget-me-nots

             picked from their garden

                 to remember him by.

         'twas a garden they nurtured

       and their love grew along with it,

    but ever since she bade him goodbye...

dreams built; flowers in their garden, wilted.
