As He Cried

A poem that shows there shouldn't be drinking and driving...
Near to the door
he paused to stand
as he took his class ring
off her hand

All who were watching
did not speak
as a silent tear
ran down his cheek

And through his mind
the memories ran
of the moments they walked
and ran in the sand (hand and hand)

But now her eyes were so terribly cold
for he would never again
have her to hold

They watched in silence
as he bent near
and whispered the words...
"I LOVE YOU" in her ear

He touched her face
and started to cry
as he put on his ring
and wanted to die

And just then
the wind began to blow
as they lowered her casket
into the snow...

This is what happens
to man alive...
when friends let friends...
drink and drive.
