The Silent Nun

A dull soothing drizzle tickles her skin. Her scheduled smile failed to arrive. Dotting the green sea, rhythm and sighs. Bead after bead she prays: " Oh Mother, Oh Father. What shall I do? My heart fails, the tears fall, but I do so love you" Belting chimes, trammels unmoved. Cursing whipping winds paint the horizon. Lips caressing each word. Wading through memories, mist and confusion. Paletted dress, she sits and says, amen.
