Squeezed By Lyrics Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Heart being squeezed by lyrics of a song that Dad
used to sing to Mom when reeling romantic and funny.

Roses bequeath these memories to both of them in
heaven together, as I sit here on earth and cry.

Memories close to your heart tend to do that at
inopportune times, especially when you're in the
midst of a crowd of people.

It's alright though, because everyone has these
moments of tremendous joy filled with sorrow over
remembering them.
