Ivory Rose

Me, falling asleep found you, ivory rose in deepest sleep, cut off, and suddenly lost colour, carried away through willow undergrowth, defenceless in the rain. The ivory rose were you, floating away from thoughts in lonely passage of clouds. A solitary song, the early twilight, quickly awaking as if in feverish dreams. The ivory rose, vanished, lost in the early day like flight of birds.

Gert, I sense a great loss of someone special. Someone beautiful, pure and precious. This poem is like a dreamy memory. When life vanishes suddenly like birds migrating. And irreplaceable thoughts remain. Am I right? The words have depth and pleasing beauty. Lovingly, Dane
