PROMISE KEPT

Remembering you, my Sunflower Girl

A promise made, a promise kept.
Into your sunflowers I wept,
remembering that day...

and still, your silk sunflowers bloom,
driving back the grief and gloom
to push the clouds away -

the Sun still is. The Earth still spins.
The Heart that loved forgives the sins
that marred our mortal clay;

A promise made, a promise kept.
A year's gone by, and time's not swept
your memory away.
You're with me still, today - 
remembering that day
