Sweet Breeze

She’s been gone far too long Yet the memory still so strong I feel her presence all around me Sometimes coming on like a tsunami Her sweet perfume barely left a trace Through the garden I recognize her grace But mostly it’s a gentle breeze I surrender to with soothing ease AP: 2nd place 2020 Submitted on December 6, 2019 for contest MEMORIAL OF A LOVED ONE sponsored by CHANTELLE ANNE COOKE
