Leaves scattered on the ground
Harbinger of things to come
Time flits by
dressed in ephemeral wings
I grow older each day
Still mourning your absence
Wondering why.
The roses bloom
Exuding a fruity, heady perfume
Dressed in luminous pastels
their petals aglow
I see your face in the quiet joy they evoke
They whisper your name gently on the breeze
Wish you were here dearest one
Wish I could tell you in person
How much love my birthday wishes
For you contain
How I wish you joy everlasting
And an ocean-full of good things.
