After You'D Gone Poem by Laurie hill

After You'D Gone

Rating: 5.0


After you'd gone,
I watched until the darkness hid you.
Pressing my cheek gently, softly,
against the cool window pane.

Frost, like an angels brooch, melted slowly upon the glass
as did my memories, unclear,
of days long past.

You set the stage amazingly in the first stanza and the second one is a work of art all by itself!
