I dreamt of your radiant face last night
So serene, a diamond, a dove, so pure white
Not sad, just vivid memories, oh, so bright
And I’ve plenty of tears, don’t worry, I’m alright
Visions of your bravery, courage above and beyond
So gracious, an everlasting smile, our iconic bond
Completely in awe, amazing, a personal anthem
And I declare, you were natures stellar blossom
I felt your pain, your sorrow, revealed to only a few
So uncomplaining, never a burden, never a shrew
Thinking the whole world should be like you
Wishing this hungry planet could be cheerful too
Wondering is life, sometimes ordained cruel?
But I’ll continue on, for you, my sparkling Jewel

You are welcome Ivor!
oh my gosh, so hellish yesterday. Stayed in most of the day but had to go out last night. It was just such a weird mix here of terrible wind and dust and smoke and yet humid too, would have loved to get rain but it never eventuated in our parts..and unfortunately family and friends near the fires here in SA, some friends directly affected. Sigh.
How was it there?

Beautiful, sweet, poignant. I know she surrounds you with love, still. 🙂
This time of year is difficult as we remember those who have gone. But I know in my heart they want us to be happy and remember them with smiles, sighs, and even laughter.
(((HUGS)))
PS…A few years ago, on Christmas Eve, one of my sisters died unexpectedly. I still struggle on Christmas Eve. But, I know she’d say, “Oh, don’t be sad! Rejoice!”
