Do You Remember September

Raining in the garden
when I saw him.
Daising blinking for him.
Always smiling,
always kind.

Do you remember September
the day he died?
The sun was shining
but the sky was grey
the leaves were crying
on that day.

Nettles taking over.
Webs are heavy.
All we have are memories.
Yellow roses
of the summer.

Do you remember September
the day he died?
The sun was shining
but the sky was grey
the leaves were crying
on that day.
