WHEN AN AUNT DIES - poem


from the ABC set POETRY - A Passage of Motion 2

You know me
Aunt Terri,
and I know you

you're a star
so bright,
you're a shining
in the night

you're golden
pride with silver
and lace.

I know your
place. You're
the precious aunt
in our dreams.

You're our Princess,
finally at peace.

Aunt Terri was my favourite living aunt. After an extended illness, she passed on. Her memory continues in my heart. We had a correspondence lasting 40 years. I miss her. RLP
