She Lies At Rest

She Lies at Rest My heart still sings the songs of yesterday. Where wafting words soon find their pleasant stay. But breezy winds forestall; and steal her way. Her endless chatter lies at rest today. © Dane Ann Smith-Johnsen January 26, 2010 Poetic form: Elegy

Hi Dane Ann. This is a lovely poem, my auntie died last Monday and this was a wonderful piece for me to read and made me think of her. I've not been on here for a while and just wanted to say thank you for your knid words on my poem "It's Never Bland. Also, contragtulations on your book being published- That is a fantastic achievement.
