Silent Specter

A silent specter still as a statue, Trapped in time, Still and silent sitting on the window sill, Pondering what she had done to become trapped in time, Her long hair lifts off of her shoulders in a long forgotten wind, Her curly red hair framing her beautiful face, You can see the love determination and a fierce hope in her eyes, Like a breeze over water her silent mournful cry for her angel lover, And she shall long for him until judgment day comes.

This is a sad and beautiful picture. It makes me think she actually is a statue you have seen somewhere. Awesome! LUv, Andrea

This is the way free verse should be done. It is truly free, not conforming to rhyme or rhythm or confined form. And yet the images evoke a sadness for this girl who remains "trapped in time," wiling to wait for love until Judgment Day. Very nice work! Best wishes, Carolyn
