The Wind Cried Mary

.... My dear Mum Mary passed away a year ago today early ..

 

The Wind Cried Mary

 

The wind it

Called her name

And she was gone

But a star

Was born instead

 

And while no one

Knows

For sure

Just how many

Stars burn bright

 

Mark these words

My friend another one

Shall surely shine tonight

While I shall whisper soft 

Her name again that of Mother

 

Author's Note

... these words were written on the morning I first became an orphan .. and when I never felt more vulnerable ..

Sorry to hear of your loss my friend. I feel a bit like an imposter, as no words will ease your hurt.
As your words support, this is a time for remembering all the good she brought and those around you, as well as tears and quiet contemplation. We'll still be here when you return. Go and deal with the important and we will be thinking of you.

Lorry.

A beautiful poem, Neville - short and sweet, with a lot of emotion behind each and every line. I'm keeping you and your family in my thoughts and I'm sending good energy in your direction. May she rest in peace.
