For the Poetic Epitaph Contesthere I Lay On This Day.

Here I lay on this day. A great soul has gone away. They gave me a blanket so I wouldn't get cold. They gave money from people that owed. I'll miss all the dinners and the food we'd eat. The great desserts and those wonderful treats. I was a great lady and always a great friend. I will be missed till they see me again. Teresa Skyles Wrote for Andrea's poetic Epitaph contest.
