Ashes Adrift Poem Verses

In skies so vast, a love that grew,
Through fleeting moments, a bond so true,
I appreciate the time we shared,
The laughter, joy, and tender care.

Their presence, a gift that touched our lives,
A cherished memory, a love that thrives,
Though they're gone, their light remains,
Ashes adrift, through joy and pain.

My dear one, I'll hold so close,
A grateful heart, a love that grows,
For even in darkness, a love shines bright,
An appreciation of life, in memory's light.
