Poem: White Daisies

Your white daisies in the vase
Are slowly shedding their petals

One by one they fall
One for every piece of you
That is slowly fading
As your days are coming to an end

Soon all that will be left are the stems
And the individual memories of you
That will forever bloom in my heart

Whenever I think of you
I will always envision a beautiful field
Filled with endless rows of white daisies
That stand tall beneath the warmth of the sun

And I will be surrounded by the love
By the comfort of your presence
That will always linger
Until the day that we meet again

Poem: Time to Say Good-Bye

It's time to say good-bye
To the last one left standing
To the one now in eternal slumber
To a generation that has lived through it all
Gone but never forgotten
Whose legacy will live on
In the generations of the present
And the future ones to come
