Wildflowers Poem by Barry Middleton

we'll meet where summer lilies grow
beneath the trees that line the path
among the shadows in the park

we'll walk together by the lake
in autumn with the falling leaves
when chilling winds announce the frost

and with the waters skimmed in ice
we'll stop beside our favorite spot
and watch the meadow fill with snow

we'll gather roses in the spring
and place them in a crystal vase
within our simple cottage home

we'll meet beyond the setting sun
where memories burn like faded verse
like seasons tossed into the fire

and as each season comes and goes
we'll be together in the dawn
when wildflowers find the morning sky
