Loss

February 16th, 2008 | Category: My Poetry

When the last of the weeping fades away

tear3.jpg

when the shudders of sobs quiet

when the breath slows

 

While the earth turns

while the stars come and go

while the sun moves north to south along the horizon

 

Grief rises up and falls down like the moon-driven tides

and the oceans of tears speak in stillness

Pamela Olson, 2/15/08
