Sun-kissed



The memory of your bright, smiling face
Brings me the fresh jasmine scent-
Your eyes were like sun-kissed green leaves
 They always remind me
Of my long forgotten spring days.

The world around me is old and grey
It is getting chillier and chillier everyday-
Optimism is losing its strength every moment
Our hearts pray for a little touch of warmth.

In this grey world of fear and despair
Your memory is keeping me alive-
The memory of your ever young presence
The memory of your heavenly fragrance.
