It is not just in the shades they wear,
Like stained glass veiled in shadow deep,
But how they float through lifeless air,
A fragile promise they cannot keep.

They carry sorrow on their wings,
And paint the gloom in colours dead,
As silent as the silence brings,
As cold as earth where flowers shed.
