Here&#39;s a new poem I wrote today:<br /><br />A Love Never Found<br /><br /><br />She looked back on her life,<br />She had accomplished much,<br />Degrees from famous colleges,<br />Accolades and such.<br /><br />She was acclaimed a beauty,<br />Envied all her life,<br />But, in spite of perfect features,<br />She had never been a wife.<br /><br />She saw the wonders of the world,<br />And traveled parts unknown,<br />Though people thronged about her,<br />She always felt alone.<br /><br />Her home was like a palace,<br />Filled with the grandest things,<br />Cold inanimate objects,<br />The kind that money brings.<br /><br />She ate at gourmet restaurants,<br />And sipped exquisite wines,<br />And dallied in romances,<br />But she read between the lines.<br /><br />When her life was ending,<br />She had one regret profound,<br />In spite of everything she had,<br />She mourned love never found.<br /><br />Carmen Henesy<br /><br />Copyright May 2009 Carmen Henesy.
