Mr Brown

Oh I ask you Mr Brown, tell me how long has it been now, since your lover went away? It was a year and a day of your life. Its been oh so quiet and the air is still for her love. Only washed her hair yesterday And the sunlight came her way The sensual glow of the sun on her skin Made her a warm and loving person The smell of sweet roses wafted round the room I’m sure you wish you had created a baby in her womb The tenderness and earthly power of her charms Was like seeing, feeling, or even holding her palms. Holy aura of your lover Could n’er be filled by no other She is the only one to make you laugh and cry But the weight of your tears now are dry Stunned into emotional shock Hit by the advance of the clock You remain in wait for your most special love Is it hope that storm clouds bring doves? Night passes and trees shed leaves A pitiful sight of a man bereaved His lover is still living but no one knows where Why did she do it, do you think she even cared? Oh I ask you Mr Brown, tell me how long has it been now, since your lover went away? It was a year and a day of your life. Its been oh so quiet and the air is still for her love.

This mastery of the dramatic monologue, and the pathos is most
