The Remembered Scent of Roses

 

 

Bits and pieces of memories,
My treasures, along my path scattered lay
But I must leave them behind
For I won't be coming back again this way
 


The joy of living them glows yet stronger
As their vibrant color dulls
As sweet as the remembered scent of roses
When all that’s left are hulls
