Roses, Violets, and Cookies

Roses are Red Violets are Blue Cookies are Sweet And so are You But... The Roses are parched The Violets are Dead The cookie jar's empty And too much went unsaid And... The Roses never had a chance The Violets won't rise The Cookies were goners And this is good-bye

Smile~Well, if it is goodbye? Then let it be goodbye! For for life is an ever turning tide~Yet, always leading, for the pure within heart, to the brighter of ending things!!? Excellent expression of emotions release! Blessings and warmth always to "You and Yours," John!:) Bye ~
