A Dove Has Flown Away a Tribute To Nancy Reagan

Washington DC deeply mourns Elegance at its best The horizon of sunrise to sun down which can both contest The term “STAND BY YOUR MAN” Nancy Reagan fits that caravan Social butterfly Nancy Reagan was her married last name But her life also surrounded Hollywood in bringing her fame Yet Nancy Reagan had a very fulfilled life She lived throughout her creed Her mission was to continue to proceed Nancy Reagan’s name known throughout the world The world’s heart captivated in tears But her life contributed in having no fears It was Nancy Reagan’s pause being her own class act This is a true known fact There was emptiness in her heart, and she longed to hear her late husband Ronald Reagan voice once again Ronald Reagan’s voice did call I saved you a place to be by my side Heaven was all prepared The chariot was set just right Suddenly there was a strong beaming light Nancy Reagan responded that the light was extremely bright It was the signal for Nancy Reagan to come up I saw two flying Doves It was each in enduring love Nancy Reagan will be missed She left an enriched and embraced life But she also states, don’t mourn long for me I am at rest in a place I want to be Yes I was Nancy Reagan for all to see But I want you to remember me as Nancy You know, the one into fashion and fancy My three components, COMMITMENT, DETERMINATION AND DESTINED This sums up Nancy Reagan’s life while she lived Her devotion in time that she would normally give Her motto, Live on, but be involved The world’s problems, just try to solve My legacy of who I was speaks for itself Don’t think of me like everybody else As a Dove, I must fly on to the next chapter of my life A journey far and long, but Heaven is where I belong I hear music in my arrival I hear singing of joy My life has been fulfilled and I want you all to carry on still I say until we meet again to all my loving friends.
