From the underside of our great love
darling, please remember this
there's no need to leave me flowers
or any other gifts
I'll sleep my death in peace, I will
I want to tell you fair
that my life that’s now been lived
I always lived with flair
need not swell those tears of grief
and wet the ground for I
it’s me, it’s I under this tree
and here forever, I do lye
fresh grass will grow in time my dear
for now, I share each season rich
when summer comes I’ll feel her warmth
and I’ll enjoy every single bit
when autumn leaves do fall on me
green, orange, pink and red
they’ll keep me warm and cozy
on my autumn covered bed
need not swell those tears of grief
go live your life, stand proud
and know, that I am always here
we're forever bound
and although, I know my time stands still
no bells, no bells are left to chime
and fates last breath has passed
you were here beside me one last time
you held my hand with love, with will
rest assured my darling dear
I promise now to watch over you
as yours is with you still.

Dramatic love is the best. Rich and ripe this poem like a fruit on a tree begs for the picking. It makes the juices flow and although haunting it like a siren voice calls from the grave for one to follow. A beautiful write crafted with good rhyme to give the proper feel. Brilliant!
Not perfect rhyme I know, but I truly am grateful you have enjoyed this my dear Sorrenbarret you know what a rebel I am by now for free verse ๐คฃ thank you dear kind friend. ๐น
For having loved, are we not immortal? ๐น
There are many types of love in this I was focusing on a mother writing to her son but yes love in all sorts is immortal, thank you dearest A.P ๐น
Just putting my best support behind a favorite poet. ๐น๐
As we get older (speaking for myself) we tend to think more about our own mortality. I don't fear death, although that's an easy thing to say when we expect to live a while longer yet! A touching poem, my friend! We all hope our memory will live on long after we are gone, in the hearts of our loved ones!
My Dear Robert !!!!! It's the lady poet in me, I guess I could have posted this on the 14th ๐คฃ oh so very lovely to.see you back โค๏ธ
a poem that will live long in the hearts of all who read it Teddy;
one the most touching poems I have ever read.
From one compliment to another dearest Melvin, again after reading yours this very afternoon I was in fact inspired to write this, so thank you once again my music of muse. ๐น
