A Little Elegy

Without you no rose can grow
No leaf be green
If never seem
Your dear face
No bird have grace
Or power to sing
or anything
Be kind or fair
And you nowhere

I read this in a book of poetry that I was typing a card for at the library and
at first I thought it was a silly poem but....
The roses still bloom and trees are turning green, the birds are singing but
not for me because you're no longer here.
