This poem caught me unawares. I was expecting a flowery poem but found a powerful but subdued testimony of bereavement. Evocative and well written.
Lucifera reading it i can feel the abject misery behind the words. This is what life is about, you start something to remember someone and then it becomes a ritual very well expressed.
I can catch a deep sadness behind your words you penned very well
I don't really read poets bios but indulge in their work and that's how I real get to know them, to know how they see things and learn from their wisdom.. Well penned sad poem, even though the reason is unknown to us but the poem is great. Siya_! !

A thought provoking write, I do not know this history but your sadness is penned well. Thank you
As time goes by the sadness is always waiting for those flowers but the memories live on, tactfully written..regards
