KATHERINE In a once sacred temple That is no more. Her robes fall around her On the cold, stone floor. Her face is hidden by long, red hair That falls gently forward As she kneels in prayer. Swirled softly about her, It glows in the twilight Until darkness crowns her With a halo of starlight. Here at the end of an ancient day, Her whispered prayers are borne away And offered up to the gods that be Who scatter their essence on eternity. Gifting a child with the memory ....Of Katherine As she knelt to pray for me. Ida Werrett |

Ida~ Your gift of sharing such beauty is a blessing to our Circle of poetic friendship~ This is just so lovely~ *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |

The more poetry of yours that I have been reading ~ the more I want to read. Thy quill pens with such grace.   EA |
