Near to the door - touching poem.

Authors Avatar

Near to the door
he paused to stand

as he took his class ring
off her hand
all who were watching
did not speak
as a silent tear

Join now!

 ran down his cheek
and through his mind
the memories ran
of the moments they walked
* and ran in the sand hand and hand)*
but now her eyes were so terribly cold
for he would never again
have her to hold
they watched in silence

as he bent near
and whispered the words..*....
"I LOVE YOU" in her ear
he touched her face and started to cry
as he put on his ring and wanted to die
and just then the wind began to blow
as they lowered her casket
into the snow....
this is what happens
to man alive.....
when friends let friends....
drink and drive.
