Like the rays of the morning sun
He brought smile to her face everytime
As the flower chuckles up feeling the rain
His voice makes her giggle like an insane
Like the sound of the flowing rivers
His voice soothens her mind
Like the colours of the rainbow so vivid
He filled her life with colours so varied
Each day spent  with him seems amazing
Anyday without him feels lonely and dampening
The way he cared for her
its so difficult to describe and compare
He made her realize what zenith on earth was
Made her realize the actual meaning of paradise
Now as she reminscences her past
Remembering the days spent with the man she adored so much
Tears rolled down her eyes ,unrushed
All she could do was
Stare at his old photograph
Thinking if it just speaks for once.

Selfishly, I reflect on your deaths
As betrayals of my childhood memories.
For, you see, you were like ancient Oaks on my childhood street,
Deep-rooted bastions of my youth,
Withstanding weather, tests and time.

You cradled me in your arms when I fell,
Scented the late summer air with freshly cut grass,
Encouraged and chastised in fair and equal measure:
You were dependable, solid reminders that change is not absolute.

You are the foundations of my fanciful reminscences.

But now, living untethered from my playground,
News of your deaths trickle down to me.
Guardians of my childhood felled in quick shock succession.
Your beating hearts and breathing lungs were always just flesh and blood
Not the ancient timber trustees of my youth,
Simply characters who waved "hello" every day of those forever-summers,
Who never aged in my egocentric mind
Who leave dots of death on the streetmap of my memory,
Whose homes will never be properly re-occupied by useless strangers.
