Resurrection Mary Poem by Kevin Patrick

In the windy city, in the cold dark night
Walks a solemn women in a gown of starlight
She wanders the streets as a stranger in time
Forever a prisoner to midnights last chimes

sometimes she drifts in the ballrooms dancing
A phantom of Venus elegant and entrancing
With her long blond hair and her eyes blue and fair
She leaves you a kiss then disappears in the air


Eternity she roams, both silent and alone
As an echo of life that death has hand sewn
Condemned to perdition of Archer Avenue
A specter of an angel in twilights residue

Don't ride alone when your driving after dark
She'll take your breath away and leave terrors mark
Mesmerizing and enchanting the nightmares you see
When you close your eyes she is all that you'll dream

Take her for a ride to Resurrection Cemetery
Back to her home with a kiss to sweet Jerry
She'll walk through the nights when your nothing but bones
In a gown of pure white in deaths nights she roams

Save me your kiss dear Resurrection Mary
