Wild Flowers For My Love

if i died tonight i’d have wild flowers i’d wish i’d gathered fields i’d wish i’d run seas i’d still long to sail unfinished business unsent birthday cards unsung melodies and unpainted flowers on unstarted canvases askew i’d have poems still unwritten but i’d mostly have the memory of you savoring the last words i’ve said a million times before how i’d always and forever love you forever and a day AP: 2nd place 2020 Submitted on June 17, 2018 for contest MID JUNE 2018 PREMIERE 155 sponsored by BRIAN STRAND Originally posted in February 5, 2018

It's true with most of us that in the end, most things will go down in the unfinished business category; but most important of all, we have to remember to let the ones we love know that we love them. Excellent piece with a deep message indeed! Hugs. Pandita

If that what death may entail, it is a good ending. Nothing more important than love...It is all that remains when the shutters are down...
