Poetry: Death of a child

by Judy Corcoran

Created on: November 09, 2010

When he left

the serpent of sparkling diamonds

which ripples and curves and stretches

from one side of night to the other

heard my cry of anguish and

taking pity on me

gently persuaded darkness

to hold a single jewel

apart from the other gems which stud its black cloak.

To point the way he had gone.
