a petal fell

 



A petal fell from the vase, to land upon the grave

Her wet eyes could not erase, gifts he generously gave

The petal was for generosity, he never stopped his giving

Amidst all the adversity, he kept the family living




The second petal was released, tumbling from above

It shows the willingness to please, and unrelenting love

The third petal that broke away, represented hope

No matter what others say, convinced humanity could cope




The fourth petal that broke free, is for his sense of justice

He treated all with liberty, and no one with any malice

The fifth petal that spun down, forgiving spirit could not askance

He readily turned the check around, to give that second chance




The mourner with the wet eyes, spirit in despair

Wish for comforting sighs, his strength always there

The wind blew the petals in whirl, and blew them off the grave

To share the gifts with the world, a mortal soul to save
