Lover's Locket ( new title for The Lucky Locket)


They clung  in passion -- long embraces,
sadly kissed goodbye while tears
of desperation stained their faces;
coming battles fuelled their fears.
He wore her gift against his chest
amidst the trench filled battle zones.
She soldiered on, although depressed;
his destination was unknown.

The lucky bean-shaped locket hung
upon it’s chain, beneath his shirt.
A sudden burst of bullets stunned
him, threw him down -- almost unhurt.
One bullet nearly killed him, struck
him near his heart but hit the charm
and ricocheted -- no stroke of luck.
Her love had kept him safe from harm.

The treasured locket’s kept inside
my `reminiscence box’ today,  
inherited with heart-felt pride
when my dear father passed away.
His parents lived this touching tale
of love, the seedling family tree;  
their golden heirloom still prevails --
a keepsake genealogy.
