“The Last Rose of Summer”
A tribute to a beloved mother taken far too soon—her grace, her courage, her quiet strength still glowing in every memory. Though illness claimed her, love remains unwithering. This song honours her gentle beauty, her laughter, her light—the final rose whose fragrance lingers, guiding us through every season.
“The Paper Rose” blooms with quiet sorrow and enduring love. It honours her gentle strength, her grace in hardship, and the light she left behind—fragile yet forever fragrant in the hearts of those who cherished her.
"Echoes of Rain"
Her memory falls softly, like rain on quiet mornings—gentle, cleansing, impossibly tender. Taken far too soon, she lives in every whispered echo of love she left behind, a steady rhythm of grace guiding those who still walk beneath her sky.
"Whisper of a Withered Bloom"
This song captures the fragile beauty she left behind—her kindness, her quiet strength, her love lingering like a fading petal. Though her bloom has withered, her whisper endures, soft and eternal in the hearts she shaped.
"The Faded Rose"
Her love lingering like the soft perfume of a rose losing its petals. Though illness stole her bloom, her gentle grace, quiet strength, and boundless care remain forever rooted in our hearts, a delicate beauty time can never truly fade.
"Litany for a Soul in Bloom" evokes a gentle prayer of becoming—an unfolding journey from sorrow toward light. It suggests a soul opening like a flower, guided by hope, healing, and quiet grace.
