Ellie, we didn't win this one.,
my beautiful wife.
We will try harder,
in the afterlife.

Why did you,
have to endure,
a disease,
which has no cure?

The brightest flash of light,
made a rent in the fabric,
of the Holiest of Holy,
the Sacred Sacrament.

God accepted a new Soul,
into Heaven's presence.
Light announcing the arrival,
of Ellie, the newest resident.

Some days are good,
most days are not.
I miss your sweet smile,
my memory is all I've got.

Someone made a choice for you to leave,
It wasn't you or me.
Sorry you had to go on Christmas eve,
for you are my life and I miss thee.

I must say,
or even admit,
these few days,
made me feel less fit.

She floated,
like a butterfly,
a flit on a bloom.
I let out a sigh,

why do memories
fade and go away,
without nature,
gone! What do I say?

Lovely eyes,
look back at me,
from a face
so lovely.

To make a new friend,
good and true,
works for me.
How about you?

There's no tomorrow,
only today.
Yesterday is a memory,
for you've gone away.

I brought you home,
it was today.
A beautiful Urn,
I know not what to say,

except I hunger for you
and I always will.
I'll love you always,
I am your Jack; you are my Jill.

I just want to be useful, again.
No need for romance,
or a Spring dance.
I just want to be useful, again.

Third trip for a tattoo.
Two tattoos today,
my birthday sign and
a tiger shoulder display.

Met a lovely lady
and we conversed,
about her daughter's book,
all unrehearsed.

Here I sit, alone,
waiting for someone to show.
Wanting to be active, but
no particular place to go.

So, once again I
head down below
and thought of you,
but had no particular place to go.

She flew, as an Angel,
into the Sun.
I knew at that moment,
she was the one.

Long will I remember,
never to forget,
the moment in time,
when we first met.
