Brenda Victoria Northeast Poet Haiku

Valentine Memory

From a hospice bed
To a special dinner date
And a wet Red Rose 

I hold in my heart 
The memory of that night
My Rose bush still blooms

In my night garden
My Rose bush exudes that night 
My heart is embraced

A gentle rain falls
Creating weepy puddles 
Reflective mirrors

Karen Deeks February 5, 2012 at 12:09 AM Absolutely gorgeous! I like how you tell part of your memories but leave the rest open for interpretation. The last section is my favourite as it suggests much but delicately Thank you Karen Brenda Victoria Northeast February 5, 2012 at 2:19 AM Thank you Karen inspiring comment, love, Brenda: )
