She, In the Heart of Me-

She, In the Heart of Me… There are people who made better life choices than------I. Some, like she, have loved me, and love her, I-----------DO. Sharing thoughts and reciting poetry I shall surely-------MISS. I do not want to accept the truth; she has gone. Oh, ---MY. Life shall never be the same without my dear------------AUNT. Her beautiful soul matches her beautiful name-----------ELEANOR. Who knew me better these latter years? A friend was----SHE. We shared experiences, and philosophies? We-----------LOVED. She lived a compassionate life of service to many--------AND Aunt Eleanor's kindhearted positive views----------------ENCOURAGED Her beauty within and without now lives in the heart of--ME. © Dane Ann Smith-Johnsen February 12, 2010 Poetic form: The new "End Line Word" (Lyrical, too) Dedicated to My Aunt Eleanor Baksa Deceased February 10, 2010.
