The Minstrel's Widow Poem by Ann ...

The Minstrel's Widow



my minstrel,
why do you keep your
sweet and golden hymns
far from me?

women who
love musicians often
grow jealous of their
instruments.

i couldn't
handle the scornful and
beautiful music of
your distant heart.

to love a
minstrel is to be
sorrowful all the days
that you breathe

and to be
surrounded by love,
always shown in music,
but never in life.
