Carolyn

Though waves of tears have washed you now, unto another shore, a precious echo of your heart, to Whom your poem implored 'Lord, let me embrace him once more, Before You carry him home', Penned as rushing tears crashed flooding, life's sorrowed silt and loam Carolyn, your poems now read, penned through your loving hand Times of sunshine Or Days of rain fell way' like grains of sand Rest in Peace sweet poet now forevermore. Though poets pen has tearfully, with sorrow, been laid down The words you wove together are a golden poet's crown, Now as we ponder poetry that you have left behind, Tears fall, our hearts are mourning as we are so inclined, Yet you're released to heaven's mercy Of Creator's love sublime You entrusted in a prayer A loving Lord you could not see, Behind you lay life's sorrows now that veil of misery Onward walk dear Caroline in heaven's wonderous peace Upon the blessed waters Beside a crystal sea And the joy you find Forever there will never ebb or cease Written for Carolyn, Rest in Peace dear poet ~ B.J ~
