Avoiding the Inevitable.

Contributed by UrbanFlower on Tuesday, 30th May 2006 @ 06:18:18 AM in AEST
Topic: anguished

A chilly breeze rushes through the air,
A mother covering her precious child with her coat,
She knows that the end is near,
She has lost all hope for tomorrow,
But the only thing carrying her, making her move, making her bother at all,
Is the thought of her child,
Her child who has no daddy, whose brothers and sisters have all flown away to be with the angels,
Her fear drives her on, day and night, night and day,
Because she knows…
The inevitable is coming…
It is not far away; she hears its shallow breath whispering behind the wind,
She can fell it’s subtle chill in the air, the very same chill that ruffles her beloved child’s hair,
The same wind that is whisking the leaves off of the trees and into the gutters,
She knows…
She knows and she cannot bear it,
Quietly she kisses her son on the cheek,
And she jumps, she soars, but she does not float.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
