And with them stand In front of her hand

Molly Mear
​(In Loving Memory)

A beauty never seen
Just ‘What could have been.’
So many tears
No ‘Mummy’ or ‘Daddy’
To soothe the ears
A room left bare
Just shadows there
Lives upturned and shaken
So much taken
No one understands

Bring on the bands
Let eyes awaken
Hope not forsaken
Take time to stare
At the banner there
Share the tears
Open your ears
Imagine where they have been
And with them stand
In front of her hand
