HARMONY SILENTLY, DROPPING SOFTLY TO THE GROUND,  THE PETALS OF THE ROSE CARRIED, DRIFTING, FLOATING OFF ON THE WIND NEVER TO BE SEEN AGAIN. TOSSING, FORGET ME KNOTS TO THE AIR TO BE CARRIED OFF WITH THE ROSE PETALS THAT WAS, ONCE HERE. THE  BEAUTIFUL ROSE, THAT ONCE STOOD SO STRONG  AND TALL, SO VERY FAST, TOOK  ITS LAST FALL. WEAKENED AND TIRED JUST COULDN'T GO ON. DRIFTED OFF IN SILENCE CARRIED OFF BY THE WIND TO A BEAUTIFUL PLACE CALLED HEAVEN. NOW, FLOATS WITHOUT ANY PAIN ONCE MORE BECOMES WHOLE AGAIN. FLOATING UP, PAST THE CLOUDS SO VERY HIGH AS SHE SHEDS HER WEAKENED PETALS TO THE EARTH,   WITH A KISS GOOD-BYE GOD, REPLACES HER WEAKENED FRAGILE BODY,  WITH A STRONG SOUL, WITHOUT ANY TRACES OF PAIN SHE IS BEING SET FREE,  AS SHE DRIFTS AND FLOATS ON THE WIND ABOVE THE CLOUDS, WHERE, NOW SHE LIVES, LIVES, SO HAPPILY ONLY, THIS TIME SHE LIVES FOREVER. IN GODS, BEAUTIFUL HEAVEN. SURROUNDED BY BEAUTIFUL ANGELS, IN THE HOUSE OF THE LORD WHERE AT LAST SHE IS SURROUNDED BY HIS LOVE AND PEACE  FOR ALL ETERNITY. ONCE AGAIN SHE BECOMES WHOLE,  LIKE THE LOVELY, ROSE PETALS SHE BECOMES FREE TO DRIFT AND FLOAT UPON THE BREEZE,  ABOVE THE CLOUDS IN GODS, HEAVEN.    JUST, AS THE LOVELY ROSE PETALS,  SHE IS DRIFTING AND FLOATING EVER SO FREE YES, EVER SO FREE. AS SHE THROWS HANDFULS OF BEAUTIFUL  "KISSED ROSE PETALS TO THE EARTH  SHE SMILES DOWN SO HAPPY AND YES, SO FREE.   XxSuNkiSsx  ~ a.k.a.
