Death of a Hummer- Ct

O, I Remember
    You Broke my Heart
'In the Garden'
        My Tranquil Garden
At My Garden End

'O, Sweet Hummer'
        Falling, Falling, Falling
 " and angels wept"
     O, Why, Why, Why

Hollow, Hollow Inside
   O, my broken heart   
                  Death Is Cruel
O, the hurt
             In My Heart
    O, the pain    "I weep"

             She Lays In Repose

Dear Heart, this poem touched me. Now that I see the picture of the humming bird it even touches me more. Funny, I just saw a humming bird this weekend while on vacation (It's the first time I ever saw one in real life) Great job collaborating your titles into this wonderful poem. Congratulations on your win. Hugs Charlie
