Kathleen Charlotte Angel Passed Away

July 26, 2017

Dear Subscriber:

Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of view. This week’s theme is gardens.

Today’s poem is a name poem using a garden to symbolize a lasting spiritual legacy.

I welcome comments on my poems at https://nicholasgordon.blogspot.com.

Yours,

Nick Gordon

Kathleen Charlotte Angel passed away
A year ago, and all her generations
Tend her private garden. Great-grandchildren
Have planted roses there, and will remember.
Love lasts as song, and does not pass away,
Even in the course of generations,
Even when the roses of the children
New bloom within an arbor none remembers.
