Description
a dedication for her memory
She has gone now, lost to dreaming
High above the vapoured clouds -
As a wispy phantom drifting;
Wrapped within enfolded shrouds
No more words to stir my being
Nor beguile my fretted mind -
Silent as the moon yet fading;
With my life no more to bind
She has gone now, I remaining
E'er to dwell in solitude -
So bereft of thoughts to ponder;
For my heart be now subdued
Shall I reach out, try to touch her
As she floats through ether's void -
Yet I fear I may not grasp her;
Thus my spirit be destroyed
She has gone now, I am pleading
Her return will ne'er be long -
She has gone now, I am waiting;
And in waiting, sing her song

Wonderful reflections - a moving remembrance, Kenn.

That was my mother in law's window to the outside world... she died peacefully January 21st, having been in our care for the past six years.
I should be accustomed to this by now, as it has been our duty and honor to assist our families for the past twenty years.
... we must move by May, as I have decided to contribute to doubling the size of a town home project here, by selling my last piece of our family property, now that the hospice watch is over... and we shall move along to another place in another time.
