First Line: My heart is like an empty nest
Last Line: Dawn sees only the reticent heart!
Subject(s): Absence; Separation; Isolation
My heart is like an empty nest
Swaying in a summer breeze,
Sundown brings no song to rest . . .
Only the sound of falling leaves.
All through the night a wafted echo
Of a melody, intimate yet apart,
Routing surging depths below . . .
Dawn sees only the reticent heart!
