Mourning Poem
I wrote this poem to my husband Mike, who died last year after a brave fight with cancer.
Miss You So

Vivien Hodgkinson
Today I gave you roses
I gave you thirty three,
one red rose for every year
that you shared with me.
as I placed them on your grave
my tears fell silently,
for the man I truly loved
who is now just a memory.
I know that those roses
will slowly wither away,
but a memory so precious
with me will always stay.
It will never ease the sadness
or the pain I've come to know,
for no matter how much time
goes by,
I will always miss you so.

will slowly wither away,
but a memory so precious
with me will always stay.
It will never ease the sadness
or the pain I've come to know,
for no matter how much time
goes by,
I will always miss you so.

In what form it appears, we do not know, but one day it will come and embrace all of us. No mourning required at all. It is for all in this universe, whether you are poor or rich, good or bad....
