Challenge Submission ~ A Beginning Each Year ~

[Nobilis]

He told me to be strong; though I may not know how.
When the shine in his eyes waned,
My daughter, not wrong, had asked 'what now'.
Well now I stand in a forever-rain.

The lives left behind and love growing cold.
The rest of us age, but you'll never grow old.

Flowers now rest where you lie, and they blossom and grow.
A beginning each year, as you feed them from below.
