Catriona: A Golden Sister

I would like to talk on Memories

How we articulate respond to their
whispers for I have felt the caress
of a loved one now in Light and felt
bidden to respond on the invitation
by Steve to join his Memories Group
there was a single exquisite preserved
rosebud I have an identical rosebud
in the pocket of a suit jacket which I
wore to my sisters funeral my sister
Catriona and I had and still have for
love transcends mortal time and place
a passion for roses the queen of flowers
This particular flower was a noisette
called alister stella grey which she grew
to perfection as she was laid to rest the
many who loved her no less than me
scattered hundreds if not thousands of
rosebuds onto her wicker casket this
one rosebud brought me in an instant
to a deep insightful overview of my
sisters life for she was a Child of God
of nature a great lover of all of life a
herbalist a healer a rosarian who devoted
her life to helping and inspiring others
A fierce opponent of cant and humbug
she had a most penetrating capacity
to deflate pomposity wherever she
found it a great bibliophile poet writer
linguist she has always been a shining
inspiration to me a singer classical guitarist
her accomplishments were legion her
modesty even more so I had no idea when
I opened this invitation only some hours
ago it seems a world in time that a picture
of a rosebud would bring me to this place
in my memories I am only glad that it has
as her voice floods through me and the
fragrance of the rose assails all of my senses
I am heartfelt glad to have been so giddily
refreshed by singular memories of times
shared with a much loved sister..... by a rosebud.

There you will meet............ my golden rose of a sister

All love and light to each as you walk this path
of temporal pain and loss safe in the knowledge
that you never walk alone we walk together in
oneness by the love and grace of God
