The Waters Edge

I would often see her walking,

always smiling, but alone.

She would pause along the footpath,

picking flowers for her home.

 

I would often hear her singing,

always joyful, but alone.

She would sit beside the river,

painting pictures for her home.

 

I would often see her dancing,

always graceful, but alone.

So angelic was this vision.

Maybe heaven was her home.

 

One day I saw her crying.

So sad and all alone.

Her reflection on the water.

I touched and she was gone.
