Mary- a Duo Rhyme

Before her last sweet words were spilled Upon the page, her voice was stilled. She’s sitting now on Father Time As once she jested in her rhyme. From there she’ll make a further climb While we learn from her paradigm. She left us many lines sublime In duo and in monorhyme. Though we will miss her pen so skilled God’s plans for her have been fulfilled.

Joyce, I was surprised that you were the only one that wrote OF Mary since I know a few members here knew of her, but anyway, I was very pleased that somebody did a very poem about mary using her own poetry form. Thanks so much for that, and Congrats on your well deserved win.
