Notes About The Poem

Looking for the right angel for Gabby

- Whisper Goodbye -

In its winter of gray steel ice

                                           gloom and doom

                                        A scream from an owl

                                            keeps me cold

                                         and shaking with fear

                                    Mysterious silver moonlight

                                         A voice no one hears

                                        with a desperate desire

                                     Sounds like an infant groan

                                    The silence falls, winter white

                                        the forgotten prospect

                                    I fly away with downy wings
