Black Gown Quatern
she wore her black gown with such aplomb
proud and alone followed to the tomb
sad though she was to lose her man
can she cope on her own, yes she can
the grey graveyard ,with an open tomb
she wore her black gown with such aplomb
lifting her head all could perceive
the tears falling as she stood to leave
her eyes misted tears starting to fall
remembering when love conquered all
she wore her black gown with such aplomb
she gave a last look at the tomb
friends became lovers as time progressed
loyal to the grave their love confessed
as they gathered and wept around the tomb
she wore her black gown with such aplomb.
