Eve Roper Poet Verse

Notes About The Poem

Anger and Tears Is All That's Left

A small heart, princess in pink, infant flawless love, 
steals and snuggles, in mortals and Gods soul.

                          Infant fragile, 
                            kitten softness.

Soft freshness babe, invites a finger's touch, a kiss.
A kiss of sleep that seeps stealing her life.
Nature's bounty drape on its pink casket.
A breath, flutter of wings, the quiet deafening.

        A heart broken, the last farewell,
        grief unbounded, when will it end.

                          Infant fragile,
                            miss its presence.
