A Father's Grief

A Father's Grief, originally uploaded by firoze shakir photographerno1.

sitting
beneath
the tree of life
mourning
the death
of a daughter
a fathers grief
the cruel
winds
of fate
blew away
a favorite leaf
21 years
of doting love
cut down
short and brief
the flesh
was willing
the restless soul
gives no relief
time
a blindfolded
thief
a wet moist
bleeding
handkerchief
