They
sit alone a-top this place.
The
lines in their faces'marked
their
disgrace's.
No
one can see from far below,
The
tears coursing down,
dissipating
as they go.
Cutting
their trail through life's
sorrows
they sail. Never stopping
to
bid back their farewell.
Oh
the stories that they could tell.
Surly
we know some very well.
Of
dragons we slew, and Kingdoms
we
knew; those hopes gone askew.
This
rhyme marches on as the moments
in
time. We look to the wonder of our God
up
above, and know that the healing
lies
only with love.
