SHE WALKS ALONE
From eyes that pierce the mortared stone
the tears of sorrow she once shed
now dried like rivers in the sand.
As steadfast winds that easeful blow
where in its midst as ships at sea
she walks alone alert, aware.
In shadowed archways lanterns shine
she stands, she stares
in sacrifice of sentiment.

Thanks Rozina
touching and expressive lines❤️🙏
You are very kind - thank you so much.
An austere atmosphere in your haunting words today.... or am I being affected by the Ukraine conflict.
A bit of both I guess. Thanks Dusk.
Excellent write!

Very expressive and truly crafted finely. I enjoy the images your presenting and the final line is an expression very direct and poignant. "In sacrifice of sentiment" 💖
Thanks for calling in and especially for your encouraging words.
