dreamfan Member	Posted May not be a poem exactly and I can only recall a few words or genearal theme. It seems like it is about flowers or something that withers or fade. I believe the last line is...follow me. Does anyone have any idea of what i'm talking about and where I can find this poem? Thanks!

GMZoe Village Elder Member	Posted Hide Post I take it this is by Gaiman? It isn't ringing any bells right away, but if it's Gaiman, let me know if it's from a comic or a text and I'll dig through the stacks and see what I can find

Posted Hide Post Is this the one? quote: "All around me darkness gathers, Fading is the sun that shone; We must speak of other matters: You can be me when I'm gone. "Flowers gathered in the morning, Afternoon they blossom on, Still are withered by the evening. You can be me when I'm gone." It's from The Kindly Ones, vol. 7 of the Sandman series. As far as I know, Neil did write it. - Cho _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ You are a Confectioner. Who can take a sunrise and sprinkle it with dew? Actually, that's Bob The Enchanter, two doors down on the left. But you make delectable treats, which is no simple feat considering Oompa Loompas won't be invented for three centuries. Not only do you delight with your sweets, but you've paved the way for a new profession: dentistry! _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ the blog thing: From an Ayewards World ...
