She Waits...

Perched on an altar of stone, Enduring the weather of time. She waits... A marble heart laments, Sorrow...forever etched...as, She waits... Her eyes filled with a glimmer of hope, Embracing her lonely stand. She waits... Immortal expressions of yearning, Shaded by the garish sun...as, She waits... For a moment...happiness embraces her, As she gazes at a seagull on her arm...while, She waits... Facing a familiar horizon, Profound longing radiates the cold sea...as, She waits... ___________________________ Inspired by the Statue of Opatija

Excellent free verse Raul to a wonderful statue in Opatija, Croatia. I had the pleasure of being there in 1987 before the Balkans War >> if you ever get a chance to go to Croatia, garb it, its just gorgeous there, and hardly touched during the conflict >> James
