The crying sun The moonless night. The silent poetess With words so bright. The soft murmur The gentle caress. The careless whisper Her silken dress. She cries in dark Her pain is veiled. She puts in fear A brave new face. Those misty eyes With tears like dew. They speak to me In words so few. Her words flow With unseen grace. Her lips move With mingled haste. The silent poetess Cries in vain. For she finds none To share her pain.
