Janice Canerdy Poet Verse

Paulette -- 1

My heart goes out to my good friend Paulette.
Her husband of ten years left suddenly.
His parting words she never will forget,
and from her dark abyss she can’t break free.
He said, “I just don’t love you anymore.
I’m sorry, but my heart I can’t ignore.”
Poor sweet Paulette is wounded to the core.
