Poem For Gigi

Her death has caused us all to pause and think My husbands heart has begun to sink into the depths of despair pausing to catch some air never regaining total control his mother’s death has taken a toll. Eyes so blue, they’d light up the day in everything she had her way, Seven children she carried in all before her death two were to fall. Her life at times was very bleak, but never could one call her weak, she stood for what she believed in, whether in goodness or a sin. Daughter, Wife, and Mother to all although she is gone she is not lost to all Her spirit resides deep within, her friends, kids, and grandchildren. A woman I was glad to know, for me her presence will always show in the strength of my daughter as she grows, strength she gained from a woman, she hardly knows.
