Tears of a Raven

She left the “unkindness”, descended upon a mossy knoll Over looking the darkness of the moonless, misty graveyard The ebony clouds shielding the glistening tears of the Raven Tears of LOVE for those that, waiting : Sing at the gates of Heaven Tears of Sorrow for those, unbelievers, who will spend Eternity in Hell Do not show me the face of despair, the tears of forever unknown : Her tears roll down the contours of her cheeks falling to the Ground Creating the Zenith of an Everlasting ROSE never to be seen As Roses grow where Her tears splashed upon the wanting Earth She spreads her wings and returns to the “Congress” from wince She came Darker and Lighter than the rest of the “death flock” soaring ABOVE Inspired by the Contest " Among the Dead " Sponsored by ~ A Rambling Poet ~ Dedicated to the ones I LOVE ; " Recieved by the LORD " By HGarvey Daniel Esquire 5th Place
