Jeanne Mcgee Poet Choka

Raining Tears

My true loves asleep
Beneath a blanket of clouds 
And I but his lullaby
Dancing a lament
Raining tears of sorrows grief
Lightly I float by your grave

Archie Wilson July 5, 2019 at 8:08 AM Very interesting and compelling view of grief, thank you. Jeanne Mcgee July 7, 2019 at 11:00 PM The picture brought back my feelings of how I felt when my boyfriend died at sea in an accident. I'm glad it made you think of grief in a new way. Thanks for reading my poetry.
