CLINKERS by ROSA ZAGNONI MARINONI

First Line: SHE CLAIMED HER LOVE FOR HIM
Last Line: FOR THE CLINKERS.
Subject(s): FIRE;

She claimed her love for him
Had burned to ashes.
But when she went to clean out
The little stove of her heart
In order to start a new fire,
She could not shake the grate --
For the clinkers.
