The Rose Remembered

A poem written for a funeral tomorrow :-

Happy were we to see this flower bright,
a rose in bloom, reflecting golden light
from glistening petals angled to the sun;
fresh beauty, with the morning’s dewdrops spun.
In time with evening mists all roses fade,
and though we’re sad to lose the show they’ve made,
the rose remembered in our heart still flowers,
and her sweet fragrance fills the silent hours.
