Notes About The Poem

Carolyn Devonshire, a beloved member of our poetry community

 who passed away on August 3, 2021 due to cancer.

 

Carolyn Devonshire Tribute

Carolyn Devonshire poured out her life
   in a timeless journey with open eyes,
      compassionate heart, wings to see the world's
         passionate tranquil and gorgeous sunsets,
            and breathless amber dawn's croon and beauty.


Giggled with joy in the refreshing cool
   water and breathed the sweet scent of perfect
      and imperfect world. A story that had
         a beginning chasing and creating dreams
            and an ethereal closing sunset.

Tom Cunningham August 13, 2021 at 12:29 PM Beautiful tribute to Carolyn Eve, she's left such a void on here, I was in shock when I heard the tragic news of her passing. I once told her the next time I went to Florida I'd call and see her. Tom
