Wildflowers weep along lonely garden paths Nectar filled tears shed on frail petal ridges run in muted colors ~ Daylight cloaked behind clouded veils Darkly hidden as grey cotton whispers cry on listless breezes ~ Butterflies sleep in empty shadows neath leafless branches while worried sorrow stills their fragile wings ~ And this hollow heart within my breathless chest lingers in hushed wishes and silent pleas *missing you
