Flowers on the window shade
by Danielle ErnstI've keep each bloom you've given me
Each rose and baby's breath
All hanging from the window shade
Still precious in their death
Each petal holds a memory
As they once held the dew
A caring word, a sparkling kiss
a simple "I love you"
No golden rings or darling pearls
can move me in the way
As a flower from my window shade
And what it has to say. 08/26/2007 Author's Note: I love being in love ^_^
