My Fondest Memory - the Memory Tree

There's a space I have in my back yard
That has the prettiest of flowering trees
Where each scented bloom holds a fragrance of you
Along with the fondest of memories 

With yellow flowers that open up like the sunrise 
On the mornings you a woke in my arms

The ones in pink, the color of your blushing cheeks 
When I mentioned how beautiful you were

The color of red like the hair on your head
Sparking more memories

With one flower as blue as the deep oceans hue
When we walked along the open sea

And orange like that of the sunset
As the end of our days comes to mind

With the leaves of green being that of envy
Of the man that now has you in his life

There's a space I have in my back yard
That has the prettiest of flowering trees 
Where each scented bloom holds a fragrance of you 
Along with the fondest of memories
