Beneath
the stars, our home
Secluded, small, serene
We laughed and danced on creaky boards
Before
stirrings of ill health crept, we prayed
between Christmas and June.
She left; we, left
alone.
the stars, our home
Secluded, small, serene
We laughed and danced on creaky boards
Before
stirrings of ill health crept, we prayed
between Christmas and June.
She left; we, left
alone.

Very moving. A reminder not to take things for granted... for one day 'ill health will creep in'.
