When nightfall finds you
Breathless under muted moon
Your shattered heart fumbling
Tumbling faster than your thoughts
May you count stars instead of tears
Echo the moments, over years
Summon one precious particle
Of light within your soul
Carry on, my friend
Carry on
This life is not over
Written for dVerse as Paul brings us a beautiful prompt for Poetics, called
Sitting in her favourite chair
Her tiny dog on her lap
Persistent stitch and steady hands
She makes masterpieces
Together, they would stretch
Across skies of sadness
Oceans of tears
Mountains of despair
Beautiful colours of comfort
Filling empty hearts
Painful situations
Unquestioned
Because this is about
Unconditional love
This is about a lady whose compassion
Reaches for miles
To grateful smiles that
She may never see
Places she may never be
People she may never know
But they will know of her
As they wrap a piece of the rainbow
Around their tired shoulders
They will know her love
