Dodey Dee

With many gathered ‘round me I will lift my glass on high In loving, caring tribute to -- But not to say goodbye To one who gave me comfort And accepted who I am, Who lovingly took my heart And held it in her hand. And there it grew to love This woman, Dodey Dee. So, darlin’, take it with you – It now belongs to thee. Author's Note: Written as a tribute and toast to a poet Friend who left our group for a while…..
