Anne-Lise Andresen Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

- Left Alone -

Eight months ago, a white coffin was carried out
                  Four men in black suits ... not a shadow of a doubt
            It was the priest who locked the door, nothing to think about

               On the stairs next to the flowerpot with dead red clover
              A yellow, dirty bowl without a drop - no sign of the owner
              Small cat tracks in the snow, faithfulness on its shoulder
