Their Loving Cup

Their loving cup sits on a shelf stained by the dust gathered there Next to a grainy photo of the chair where he first styled her hair Tears trickle 'cross the windshield their first and last car Lips melting on a screeching curve intersecting the moon and the stars

a touching poem, Gershon. I loved each line but was taken by the first line, "their loving sits on a shelf stained by the dust gathered there." The last two lines left be breathess as I tried to grasp the tragedy. Well do, Gershon! Yep, will fave :-) enjoy your Sunday, Sara

This breaks my heart. Starts so lovely ends in tragedy. Great emotional write.
