Been away. Saying farewell from this world to my step-mum. Loved. Missed. Always remembered.
In gentleness you spoke and thought
In quietness you moved
In otherness of focus
Was the path you oft did choose
In jest, your laughter hearty
In grief your focus set
In cheeky shifts of humour
Work with diligence was met
In children, love rejoicing
In grandies, care and pride
In family, time well-spent
Love with husband from on high
You saw beauty all around you
Brilliant colour from the rose
Form of mankind in all seasons
Adorning cakes and walls along your road
Determined, gentle battler
Crown of persistence on your brow
Hopeful, enduring constancy
Now complete and wholly sound
I love you
