This is a poem from within my novel, RENVERSEMENT. |
From my novel: RENVERSEMENT HERE LIES Last rights were given by the priest, And your spirit's been released; Although your body is deceased, My love for you has still increased. When we were young, our life seemed vast, But looking back it went too fast; We knew of course it could not last, And now our dreams are in the past. We built an empire for only two, Molded uniquely for me and you; Within its walls our visions came true, Forging a mansion from out of the blue. In trying to do what we should, Sometimes the bad outweighed the good: No one's perfect, that's understood; We lived each day the best we could. You left my home a lonely place, And in my heart an empty space; But in my dreams we still embrace, Restoring a smile upon my face. ---Sandra Hookham (horsetrainer) |
