Personalized Poetry

Since she was 11, Rosemary has been touching people’s hearts with her poetry.  Her words are verbal paintings of sentiments and memories.  Her first poetry book, Soul Of A Rose, will be published in January.

Here’s a sneak peek:

Journey

He took us on his wondrous journey,
One where he described all the beautiful places he saw,
And all the interesting people he met. 

The memories and knowledge, even about some rare insects,
Drew us in like we were actually there.
He egged us to follow the same paths, not being afraid to dare,
Making our minds see beyond in awe. 

He guided us on his magical trip,
One that glided on a musical spectrum along a trail of stars,
Leading us to relish life often in a different way. 

Some of us even followed him to his dark caves not wanting to stray.
He showed us not just how the sunrays dance with ocean waves,
Or how butterflies flutter while lovers skinny dip,
But also how the currents beat land into tar
Or how we give ourselves and Mother Nature deep scars. 

He drove us on his wild ride,
One that sometimes excited us so it abated our breaths,
At times making us fly so high we reached the sky,
At others plunging us like a steep rollercoaster yet already on the ascend. 

Despite roadblocks, he went through them, often without a mend.
The only time we crashed was on that cold winter’s night
When cancer hit head on and shut his earthly light. 
‍
We must continue his wonderful journey,
Seeing the world’s beauty as he saw;
Exploring the universe’s treasures as he did. 

We must continue taking his fantastic trip,
Not only reveling in the beauty of each day
But also consoling shadows of each night. 

As for that wild ride of his,
It left our hearts with very deep tracks,
Some so deep they can never be filled. 

Yet, we must tread on.
