The Widower and Wife: LIND30
Tear stained pillow dries in dawns light,
with his eyes wide-opened with delight,
an aliferous butterfly color-filled wingspan,
a smile had donned on a well informal man,
[LIND30WCR]
An egg fries and a toast buttered,
Mid-morning in the field, he stands,
The window curtain flaps in the wind,
He tipped his lid and toiled all day long.
[LIND30WCU]
Bathed, tidy up, cooked, eats feast,
two placed arrangement, routine,
a theme plays he knows by heart,
arms bout confirming the dark away,
[LIND30SU]
The widower goes to bed,
turned down and alone he spread,
he sleeps on its comforter,
and lulls to another night with her.
[LIND30SR]
