The Widow's Laughter

THE WIDOW'S LAUGHTER Having the troubled sea Run down your cheeks. Having the thunder claps Deepening your countenance. The laughter of a widow In the storms of transition. Having the tides of the sea Stripping the shores wet And the raindrops of tears That sprang the dirge On the dancefloor of sorrow. In the sunset, The mind's not at rest But the unforgettable memories Hitting the screen of the mind With a soft dirge in sorrow Till all go hide. 17 Lines 3 Stanzas Date written: 2-Nov.-2012 Author; KESSIE JUSTICE AMENYO
