PERIWINKLE
Beauty is not in the blossom
but in the bed
so that when one falls
the others hold their heads high
in periwinkle pride.
Oh nature, nature,
learn me your lesson
that when others leave
I will not grieve
but be a lens
for light
to touch
the living.

This is one of my favorites and I read it to my sister, Mimi, who loved it too. It gives us such a healing message. Thank you, Jimmy Mac
