Andrew, It the surprising poem... The grief extends to all parties. I read it as the requiem prelude... You have lost crown of dream also as the rose has lost the crown of its petals... 10... Kindest regards, Tsira

A beautiful melancholy poem Andrew. Beautiful in that it melts my heart and tells a story with superb images. The refrain speaks to me and I will go back and read it again and again. Top marks! Karin Anderson
