Give me to the summer breeze

One final walk together An oldie updated 28/02/20

It's time my love you lived again
removed the widow's black,
leave sorrow for all yesterday's
invite happiness "come back"

So don a dress of pastel hues
paint a smile upon your face,
walk me for a last time dear
to my final resting place.

Take me to the highest hill
give me to the summer breeze,
to gently fall on lush green grass
'neath the shade of aged trees.

Then take your leave, live again
let another share your heart,
as I will love for eternity,
we will never truly part.

A beautifully sad-happy conflict that is almost always present with true, heartfelt loss. This type of write can be quite cathartic for the author and certainly does no harm to the reader. Gently written too... I like that.

I never used to cry very often, but it seems I do it quite easily the last few years. The tears filled my eyes by the 4th stanza. Beautiful and sad, yet encouraging, the perfect combination.
