Description

She walked

She walked 

in the rain, 

the skies weeped,

silently,

slate grey 

the clouds

above, 

calling her name

For the puddles 

danced

with her reflections 

as empty people 

walked by,

oblivious, 

to her pain

they never thought,

never wondered, 

never stopped,

to ask

or even consider,

why

For as spring, 

she turned 

and lay

sleeping, 

wrapped

in last year’s 

leaves,

dreaming 

memories

of summer

in the empty park,

she silently, 

slowly,

grieves.

And upon

a  child’s roundabout 

turning, 

silently 

dreaming

of life,

she turns

her umbrella 

in the falling 

shadows,

the darkness fires

and winter

turns to ice

…and burns
