An Ode To Carolyn Helen Devonshire

Though from this world she decided it was time to retire,
Her words will continue to inspire,
Even where there is no church spire.

And around the world others will never tire,
Of words of wisdom, from this Devonshire,
As  far away in NZ did she inspire.

She left us at the top of her game,
Passing without shame,
And leaving no words of blame.
