What fate moved in<br />to sever the bonds of her earthly life -<br />who never unwrapped the covers of sin,<br />who welcomed and warmed with her thought, her smile.<br /><br />In sleep our minds' dark barriers crack.<br />Tears spring to wash the other's face.<br />Locked in loss, bewildered by fact<br />we try to be wise, keep holy our space.<br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0);">Caroline Glen is an award-winning Gold Coast Poet.
