Sara Kendrick Poet Couplet

Reaching Out

From a lonely grave a broken heart reaches out  
Touches within my intermost being without a doubt

Did she not have any courage left within her grasp
A tiny bit to help her cling on and a small hand to clasp

Wondering for years what really happened back then
Accidental poisoning or suicide in the glen

Six days she lingered in agony's strong grip
Was she able to repent and leave on the gospel ship?
