Londons Flower

dbremner

As I stood there

On a Monday morning

In the quiet peace

Of Highgate Cemetery

 

I thought of Lily

Lily with the long dark hair

That flows through my mind

From time to time

 

How could it be?

I thought to myself

That here before Marx's tomb

I should think of her

 

The answer was simple

Marx was a great thinker

But Lily

Is London's flower.

  • Cheeky Missy

    Sweet tribute to "Lily"....I am unfamiliar with her....will you tell me more?

    • dbremner

      Am I able too? Hope so! Fr I received a letter today!

      • Cheeky Missy

        I wish you would explain and not be so cryptic. IF you are meaning what I fear, then consider....three things.....(A) the postscript/mailing date on the letter; (B) the date of the last fatal email; (C) my sonnet attempt # XVI Dear Valentine.... on PH.
