"in tears of silence my grief comes as a whisper ... a dagger of pain" Quote Senryu - by Constance
My forever grief is now part of me, I wear this melancholy cloak each day; my tears could fill each blue ocean and sea, and I visit the dead with a bouquet. I recall in repose such a sweet girl, my sister loved to swirl, whirl, leap and twirl; but, one snow day her wings had to unfurl. Never will I let go of my truelove, gone to heaven to join my baby dove; they wait for me in the beauty above. My beautiful kind mother God set free, and with father they rest with trees that sway; each memory kept is a precious pearl, when my grandma's died- I lost deep pure love. ________________ February 06, 2023 Poetry/Fragmented Rhyme/In Tears of Silence Copyright protected, ID 02-1523-618-06 All Rights Reserved, 2023, Constance La France Written for the Premiere contest Fragmented Rhyme sponsor, Emile Pinet, Judged 03/01/2023 Second Place
