On Edge

She stood on the cliff and watched

the

sea

She pondered her life and paused,

saw

Her mouth opened wide in shock

and

awe

Her body was poised and ready

fall

The storm whipped the seas up to

a

froth

The wind whispered death but just

her

Acquiescing she took the small step,

just

And she fell right into my arms,

and

peace

On strong wings I lifted her up

Light
