Requiem - A Response
She stands and weeps
as the rain seeps through her clothes.
She stares at the cold, frank headstone
and can almost feel his presence near.
She whispers things
that she always felt the most
and wishes she had told him
when he was more than just a stone

Thanks to you both for your comments! :-)
Cynthia; I removed the lines after 'just a stone' because I wasn't sure if the rest of it worked myself and I do agree with you that those first 8 lines are the best and, I think, really all I need to say in response to the other poem!
