Poem

She asked the angels to weep with her
but they had no tears left to cry
all joy and all sorrow was gone for the day
and she was left alone

Dappled moonlight through ash leaves fell
like lace upon her pathway
rustled by the autumn breezes
and left her breathless

Misty wisps of clouds
ran back and forth against
a velvet black sky
studded with gems

She asked the angels to sing with her
but they had no song left to say
all joy and all sorrow was gone for the day
and she was left alone
