Roy Foster Poet I do not know?

Why Did She Smiled

Lou Ann was fifty-six the day that she died and the last question I asked was why 
did she smiled.Her husband was in jail and he was sentence to life.For killing her 
two children with an axe and a knife.Her family didn't cared if she lived or died,but 
eveytime I saw her she would always smiled.I asked her the question,"Lou Ann,why 
do you smile?"With an eerie look on her face she gladly replied,"I see my children in 
the yard and I'm going to play with them in a while."I didn't knew what she saw and 
I didn't knew what she meant,but everybody told me that Lou Ann didn't had good 
sense.All I knew something was not right and I should have known that tonight 
would be the night that Lou Ann would tragically die.That night in December It was 
cold,dark,and quiet,and at twelve O'clock midnight,something loud broke the 
silence.The police went inside and found a smiling Lou Ann in her bed.With an 
empty .380 but a bullet in her head.Everybody thought that Lou Ann was a crazy old 
fool,but if you lost everything you love the what would you do?
