Know the rose by its fragrance
Its very essence.
The flower long dies leaving its essence behind.
Loved ones depart leaving their essence behind
Essence in the form of thoughts, wisdom and experience.
Each life carries a message
However brief or long
To carry the essence all along
Is to remember the words of wisdom and courage.
And live them
Is to know them eternally

Another beautiful poem full of great wisdom , kitchnette. I adore your poetry!!!
I posted your enchanting winter poem you left on my blog and linked back to you. If anything needs changing, please let me know.

Great one seen at Naturenut! It was an inspiring picture...and your poem so aptly fitting with it.
Dear JJ: Your pictures are a treat always! You seem to capture the right moment.
Dear Merging Point:
The pictures were so lovely, couldn't help writing
Thank you, kitchenette soul. :D You know, when I was young I wondered what wisdom was, searched the Bible for its hidden meaning. As I grew older I discovered it. :D It comes after a few emotional scars heal.
I tagged you on my blog. If you don't have time for it, that's okay.
Hugs, Nancy
