Baby Girl

Lying in the morgue aneath it's dim light
Her corpse, both motionless as left behind ?
Pulling up unto his curb while decades have come 
Thus then gone; held these years, when beauty fled 
A breath she flew ? Purged of tears which hold their sight... 
Climbing time's steps with, eager hands; and love, shall turn this key.
