Falcon's Song of Songs

For a daring young hiker, Ellen Cole, sudden downfall of rain blocked clear light and a small cave became her warm, dry hole. For months to come, no daylight fell, her woodsman-husband labored and lined that same cave with ivory for her grave; his futile attempt to deal with guilt. Her pet falcon survived that mayhem night. Soaring the forest, he charms the creatures there; music as his mask, he mourns his loss of sight. June 14, 2019 Sepulchered Memories, Edward Ibeh, contest: Pick A Title, Vol 5 - Verse
