Even This August... Elegy #1 for Teresa R

Even this August...

Elegy #1 for the death of Teresa R. an old friend who passed 11.08.19

 

Another old friend passed this week

Far too young for death to seek

Friends as children, but not for keeps

Missed by those to remember

As this summer ends your light too fades

And tears now fall for the life you gave

May your family now, somehow be brave

Even this August, will turn to September...

I know you’ll look down and make it so

The love you left them will help them grow

The pain though easing, will never go

Sadly missed but happily remembered
