The rosettes, the roses, the grand view of the rose bush was something she'd never see again. But then, there I was, her eyes for the beauties she loved I remember she said she'd love to see Hawaii But then, she never made it there, Not to see the seaside, or to wade in its waters or to walk along the shore or hold the hand of her lover not again But then, there I was I, who knew her dream and said to her in passing I will tell you how the seaside looked Or what joy it was to walk barefoot on its sands and dip my feet in its water, or wade deeper where the corals danced below on seabeds roused by the waves.
