A Special Kind of Love
A larvae of love,
contains butterflies of
my monarch thoughts of you.
That softly land
on a bright moss of my memories.
Thoughts of you are like rose on the breeze.
Fragrant with loveliness
were the life lessons she knew.
Beautiful wisdom her warm soul poured
The graceful keeper of the prescious stories
we adored.
Why are the memories more dense
after the ones we treasure depart?
As every milestone you shared with me,
migrates to the permanence of my heart.

She had 8 kids, 28 grandchildren, over 20 great grandchildren
and a great great grandchild on the way. She was surrounded by so much love.

Sorry for your loss. Nice depiction, using the metaphor of monarch butterflies. They always find their destination. Sounds like she lived a very long life! I like the sensual description using the rose. It's said that the sense of smell is a strong influence upon memory. Anyway, hopefully her legacy can live on through you. Nice write. Take care.

I read that, they always find their seasonal destination
even over thousands of miles. Thank you kindly for your words
I have also heard that scent is the fastest track to memory.
