Relics
In the bloom of youth
Blazing stars
Above the roof
Tiny suns
In outer space
Far away
And faint with age
Many of the stars
Have died
Yet their light still shines
As days gone by
Like the simple words
Of this little poem
That still will shine
When I am gone
Loosing someone is never easy watching these “stars” fade away but the way we hold them in our heart that can never be taken from us!
that is beautiful - thank you
Sometimes, i just got no words. Because there is really nothing else to add. The message is clear, the words are adequate, the technique is top notch.
This poem is perfect as it is. Absolutely perfect. I LOVE it.
Thank you for sharing it.
thanks, @flashfiction - I appreciate that
My Mother passed in this House where I am staying now, My Dad in America, I still see things here that remind me of them , everyday.
Thank You for these Words!
Thanks, @awgbibb - I'm also surrounded by mementoes of my parents - they prompt me to think of them and occasionally shed a tear
I loved your poem, like the fainted stars' light it will shine for me
thank you
