Mystic Rose Rose Poet Rhyme

Nice and Slow

She left this world in a hurry even though she lived it slow 
leaving behind a legacy of kids, and a scented afterglow 
Love was all she knew and she showed it with iconic smile 
what I wouldn't give to hug her one more time,... I know 
leaving this world in a hurry she entered heaven nice and slow 
I saw the bouquet of violets that they left for her and cried 
for the scent of her clung to my pillow only once she died
Life was a series of moments some tested some tried 
what I wouldn't give to today to have her by my side 
I know, I saw the bouquet of violets only when she died
Mother was a precious poem written with a gentle quill 
she was like flowers blooming on our window sill 
Love was all she gave us until she became ill 
oh what I wouldn't give to love her just like days of old 
She left this world but all I know is she loved us, 
more then gold !
