Midnight Whispers
I stood in the doorway entranced
Evoking the melody of a little girl's midnight whispers.
As I watched the dandelions dance in the howling wind
I could hear the rain orchestrating a familiar tune upon the
Roof.
Signs of her fleeting life encompassed me throughout the house
While her illuminating eyes and smile haunted my memory.
Etched in the corner of my mind, her body convulsed like a fish
From water.
I wanted to cure her from the sickness that held her tiny frame
Captive
But healing was not a gift that I could bestow on her.
Her body grew cold and still as she lay in my arms.
And as I gazed into the windows of her soul
I knew in my heart that she was no longer with me in this world
For it was this night the angels ascended with her spirit to
Heaven.
Though she is no longer with me, the memory of her will live on
In my heart
As I remember the sound of a little girl's midnight whispers.
I didn't write this...I just found it.
