Bouquets of Promise

Bouquets of Promise

She’s as silent as
a bride walking down
the aisle, guests whisper
how beautiful she looks,
afraid to disturb the
moment of her passing

Beneath her veil tears
are visible in her eyes
they are not caused by
sadness, they come from
bliss

For she symbolizes love,
hope, beauty and peace
equal to the grace of spring’s
bouquets of promise
