A NEW WIDOW

The nightlight burns, awaiting her arrival.
Not afraid of the dark, but who really knows
What is lurking!
An empty house...
Shadows cross the walls, as cars pass by.
Quiet...Still...Lonely...
Her husband won't be back.
Love put out his hand, and he took it!
Why doesn't he put out his hand for her?
Just one Gesture, is all it would take.
Her hand is waiting...
She's not needed HERE!
There are NO loose ends!
Her daughter could take over.
She's tired and alone.
Come swiftly...she's waiting....
