An Angel Fell From The Sky #3/13

~ Frank Solanki

Mrs. Jones keeps herself busy all day

But there is a sadness her eyes do show

Sometimes, she just drops everything

And for hours, stares out of the window

Picks up a photo from a shelf

Of her and Mr. Jones

Wipes the dust which isn’t there

And reaffirms her bones

…

When Mr. Jones left for war

There was a sense of pride in her eyes

He promised her that he would be back

Before her diamond tears dries

…

It’s been more than 25 years

Since the day that he was gone

All the anniversaries have been missed

But no curtains have been drawn

…

He always keeps his promises

Never once did he break her heart

His memory always accompanies her

Though they may be a thousand miles apart

…

And so, Mrs. Jones still believes

He would keep this promise as well

Come back just as he had left

But with a million stories to tell

…

She only has herself to blame

She really doesn’t know why

She couldn’t stop her eyes from crying

Her tears just refuse to die
