For Kay

Kay was simple in the simplest of terms Face always the same we'd learn Pretty with those pretty eye's I would have married without surprise. She put desire inside her smile with the look that lasted and comforted a while I can only imagine as love imagines that mile What I would have had with that face, that smile The childhood dream she would be to the degree one of the pretty faces attractive to me and had not I concerns elsewhere the single mind to put her there But yet to Heaven I say this prayer. I would have loved you had I'd been there I would have kept you and given the care I would have died had that been the cost nothing would have been the price for your loss
