You couldn't see her halo
But you knew it was there.
She was an angel sent from heaven
Like the spring breeze upon the air.
She was a kind and loving mother
A loyal and devoted wife.
She was a perfect example of
How to live your life.
Now that she has left us.
I know she would say.
I have not deserted you.
I'm just preparing the way.
By: Glenda Ragan-Naleway
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There she goes link a blaze of light
On the wings of a hawk in flight.
And my Irish heart bleeds for the loss so deep.
Be keeping in mind that is only a short time,
Before we see the sweet lassie, our own sweet Lee.
I feel like she is with us.
For surly she is carried here today in each heart and mind.
