Lost Love

Songs of love are sung no more bridal flowers lie on the floor in the garden weeps the maid as visions of a wedding fade Lost a lover to the sea blissful life was not to be mourning doves cry out his name in ocean's arms his soul is lain Bring him home on angel wing where the gentle larks do sing bury him near ebbing tide where he met his perfect bride

This sounds like the song of a lovely, ancient tale....or a Charlotte Bronte novel...something that I would love to read and have a huge sob-fest!! So beautiful, yet sad! Great job, Valerie! ~ Carrie
