Woman They Have Never Met
Her child missing, her husband dead
One disappeared, is she aptly fed?
In her heart, why should she go on?
She has a feeling her child is forever gone.
There are no words to express her grief.
They have not been invented yet.
Her cat and dog run off, with big relief.
She’s now a woman they’ve never met.
