FLOWERS OF LIFE

Blog Posted:3/28/2018 3:14:00 AM

Life is a stream

On which we strew

Petal by petal the flower of our heart 

So wrote Amy Lowell in her evocative poem 'Petals'.So often others have made an indelible impression upon me by a casual remark or action.Unknowing,they fade from view as we take different paths,but as in  Amy's image..like petals on a stream..their fragrance has linger long on my life
