He's Gone

by Marie Rennard

Poetry

(Swans - November 30, 2009)

Gone with angels,

His smile,

Blown in the wind.

And Edith's heart's torn out with tears

She just can't leave him leave

Although she knew he wouldn't stay

And her arms were too large for such a small baby,

So they took him away from her

Gently talking console.

And now she sits, absent,

Her eyes wide shut

And she's got nothing left to lull a soothe

But fathomless sorrow.
