Dedicated To Calvin Moore, a grandfather
The petals of a lifetime
fall from the stem
of a reddened rose,
its time gone by
in your cold grey hand.
The light long faded
from your eyes.
As the sweet life now
fades from your last rose
lying across your chest,
so too fades our joy
we once shared
in your life past...
