The Woman Of GodA Poem by Paul BellIt was the sound of sex Sure it was He remembered it from a far distant past He passed her in the corridor sometimes She would be good at it, he thought Though it did confuse him the next night She was dressed as a nun Halloween she laughed Time sure had passed him by There was a time he thought But that seemed a far distant past He slightly remembered the sound of gunfire The darkness till the bandages were removed Life had been cruel going on from that day He was never bitter though Survivors had no right to be bitter He knew his time was coming His body told him so In a way he was relieved It was in the early hours he started to wander He watched her coming towards him A woman of god It felt good as she spoke to him Taking his pain Delivering him into a new world He died that way A man finally at peace. © 2020 Paul BellReviews
