"Gently"
©2000 by Little Rascal

Gently,
You came into my life
Like a rose in early Spring.
Opening to me, your life
As the petals to the sun
Thriving in our love
Like the flower to the rains.
Until the clouds moved in
Blocking the sun
And the flower withers
As did our love,
Leaving as it came,
Gently.
