I cannot bring you back
from death my love
even though my dreams
are haunted by your very vision
painting you onto my canvas
is all I can do
awakening my soul each day
body shaking
mind so tired of your absence
alas…
dreams of you
dreams filled with colour and hope
we can no longer physically touch
yet, I feel your warmth
and I wonder if someday
we will reunite?
in this…
my beautiful painting of
wild flowers.

Reunion will be joyous and special. đđ
Thank you so much dear A.P â¤ī¸
This poem is filled with beauty, longing, hope, all the wonderful emotions that keep a loved one near to us, even when they are gone. The pain of loss is there, and yet it is soothed with your gentle words and wild flowers, where you will always be one with the beloved. Breathtaking my dear Teddy!
Thank you my dear Bella, such a lovely review as always. â¤ī¸
This is okay.Sadly there are no names so the reader is not engaged
Hello dear david, I know who I am speaking of, but it is the reader who may or may not relate through their own loss and or emotions. Thank you for coming along to say. đ¤
A longing to be reunited with those we love! Beautiful!
Yes exactly, this time of year is always special to me for this reason. Thank you so much for your perfect observation and kindness dear GenXer Shamrocker âī¸
Thank you for sharing such a beautiful reminder that one day this will happen for all of us who have lost someone so special to us.
Wow. Beautiful work Teddy
Thank you dear Thomas.
I like to think of wild flowers as being just that .. they look good in a garden too of course .. but strange as it may sound .. the sight of them in a vase, jug or jar is rather saddening ... beautiful poetry tho petal ... đģđšđēđŽđĨđĒģđˇđŧ
Thank you my dear Nev. đē
Wonderful loving words Teddy.

Thank you dear Andy.
I can really feel the emotion and longing in your words. A lovely poem so well written. It really hits home. Thank you so much for sharing your poem and the feelings behind it.
Thank you dearest Tom, unfortunately I have known about grief since I was 24. My own personally therapy isn't being a victim but being an artist and poetess who can use my loss for positivity, I know I am not alone and if I can brightened just one person's day with my thoughts, I think I have done my job as an author. Thank you so much for coming by to leave such kind words. đ
Sorry to hear that, Teddy. And it's a real gift you have, that you can turn these experiences into art.

A beautiful poem of reflection. So relatable for those of us who have loved and lost. Your posted image of wild flowers is exactly how I wish to see them. Seen at their very best. A lovely poem Teddy.
