Justice In its own strange way Had indeed The final say When the sons of Captain Lee Went to the bottom Of the sea Downed by a fierce Raging storm That finally killed Those bitter thorns The day their father Died Coin and land And hearth and home The Captain had bequeathed For she had stayed there By his side Long after she was free In his final Will and testament His one good parting deed Signed with a long repenting quill And by the legal powers that be He did in deed In deep repose Give it all to Rose Rose now walked The streets of town With grace and dignity The richest women in the land Thanks to Captain Lee For two more score With open door Rose lived in tranquility Her house dedicated To the legacy Of Captain Cannon Lee Providing shelter to the poor Abandoned women And their babes So grateful for the many lives With the grace of God She saved She died one day in autumn When amber leaves fell from the tree And was laid to rest Beside her daughter And the Captain Cannon Lee Dubbed the Rose of Savannah By those who knew her well They came by the hundreds To say their last farewell Rose petals In shades of ebony Were laid upon her grave Each one in loving memory For all the lives she Helped to save ~~~ We dwell in quiet places Where mortals sleep eternally We earthbound angels made of stone Keeping vigil for thee Stone angels carved by human hands In honor of the dead Giving meaning to the path Where mortals dare to tread Written: June, 2016 Author: Elaine C.
