A Short Poem For Linda-Marie

I wasn’t there to hold your hand,
And couldn’t say goodbye.
I won’t forget your sunny ways;
Your passing made me cry.

With love for Linda-Marie Bariana

short and sweet, like the Sweetheart herself. I do not cry easily but I felt tears wanting to come when I saw the news. It's sad that not one of us knew enough about her to be there for her in the end. But remember, she wanted it that way. Some of us tried to write or call her and we were unable to. May she rest in peace.
