I Wrote a Poem Today,Its Message True Words

I Wrote A Poem Today,Its Message True Words I wrote a poem today,its message true words banishing morbid grey,its echoes I heard in foreign tongues,set my heart aghast, curses darkly flung,deeds of my past. I heard a song play,its rhythm so true banished morbid grey,its dancing was you. Dear believe these words, our love was once true. You were my sweetheart,back when love was new. I cried that sad day,love-loss a great blow birthed saddest grey,bringing life low in epic pain found I, darkest of hell nothing left to gain,ours is a sad tale. Heard a rumor say,you are pretty still time to leave today,I write my last will. Dear believe these words, our love was once true. You were my sweetheart,back when love was new.

Interesting work. Yes, the word grey is the old English spelling of gray. Sara
