Leave a Flower

Please leave a flower on top of my grave Touch your pain gently with the days we spent and know that I loved the journey you gave, to my joyful heart wherever we went My eyes saw only you until they closed Feeling death's cold palm upon my face You gave me golden memories, some composed of a smile I loved my fingers would trace Leave a flower with love from your heart Tenderly lay it under cathedral sky Where my spirit will soar when you turn...depart Please never seek reasons, never ask why Know whenever you pluck a flower in bloom, you will remember me from its sweet scent Breathe in the fragrance of our love's perfume A gift to you love, for my heart well spent 12/21/12
