House for Sale

    I light the candle for my wife
      memory of her honest life

    No more is felt her gracious way
      absent her presence, I shall not stay

Thank you for clarifying my friend. I am so relieved to hear the excellent news my friend. It's funny how words unintentionally can create such a apprehension. All your followers have a deep appreciation for you and your well being...
