On the Edge of the Road

On the edge of road; while he was going on his way With feathered feet ,he became a dust! Motionless pale and barefooted I was standing as a withered tree... While the wind stings my lips! I was standing on the edge of road Holding my fists on a handful of dust while the ash leaking from the hole of my heart!

the imagery is so deep and sad especially in the final stanza - the image of ash leaking from a hole in the heart - oh so sad a heart burnt out and nothing is left :-( Hugs Jan xx 7 xx
