Yellow Roses For Linda

Happy Birthday Linda ..I miss you more each day..


Poem Artwork

I wanted to see you on your Birthday..
I stopped and bought flowers
on the way..
I know you love the color purple..
but I bought yellow roses
for this day..
Yellow..
for remembrance..
of all you were to me..
Yellow
for the brighter side..
you always made me see..
but most of all
yellow for our friendship..
that shall never die..
I placed them on your tomb stone..
then sat with you a while..
I talked about the old times..
the fun times that we had..
I must admit memories
bittersweet and sad..
I wanted you to know
you can be proud of your son..
He has had to be so strong..
to lose his mother so very young..
Happy Birthday my dear friend..
remember my love for you will never end..
I have a constant reminder of your soul.
As each day passes
I watch him grow..
He is bright loving and kind..
And through him
I will have a part of you
for all time.
