Sunday Muse - a Tribute to
Pawn rook and queen
Dear lady's love
Will linger on
Generous, sweet
Willingly down
love's isle she went
She gave to him
Her attention
Like none before
Perfect couple
From that day on
She'd pull the weeds
Mow needing grass
Herd pickup truck
Farmer instinct
Sang high sang low
Loud, crisp and clear
Words of love for
us and her God
Not a selfish
Bone in her bod
Welcomed always
in family
Upon that day
For her to leave
She went with peace
in soul, to God
Her king and knight
Gladly laid down
Written in Tribute for my dear sister-in-law
who died September 9, 2021 (Obituary)
