An Image In a Locket

=========================

An image in a locket

Thy face encased in gold 
placed at my breast,
all I have left

Yet, how am I to hold 
an image in a locket?

Very moving + reflective, Lycia. There is a heartfelt loss in your few, powerful lines. The locket image is so relatable. Congratulations! Brian
