Let Her Rip

She lived the kind of life she always wanted to like a lion out of cage fierce and always good full of laughter, she was an arrow built straight and like the ocean she poured out salty water but, made you fast belong She was never afraid to love you with both arms detesting lies and cheaters, she said it like it was her Faith was bigger then a mustard seed and God? always first on her list it was written in her bible creed yes , she was fair and strong She was born on Christmas Eve beneath Franciscan sky lived to be a ripe old age until he claimed her as his own This Christmas the church bells won't be ringing loud, she's nestled in His stable wrapped safely in His shroud RIP mom, you are my song. Dedicated to my mom who past away in August of this year. December 14, 2018 Sponsor: John Lawless Contest : Let'er RIP
