Empathy
A lonely oak sways to an autumn hymn
as the woodcutter mends her broken limb.
Note to reader: This is a two line couplet that tells the lovely story of a lonely woman who is found by a gentleman (hymn/him) in the autumn of his life. Instead of taking her down, like he may have done in his younger years, he mends her broken heart.
