Brande's Roses


It was bitterly cold that sunny day in late November, when my husband's best friend and I scattered Brande's grey ashes over a snow covered rosebed.  The wind blew his ashes into my face - a final kiss goodbye.  As one of his friends would later remark, "nice one, Brande!"  

I promised myself that I would return in June, when the roses were in bloom.  My heart skipped a beat when I saw the vibrant, red roses thriving where his ashes had been scattered.
