Losing Sharon
The world’s a little colder;
There is less we can rely on
Without the ready shoulder
She would offer us to cry on.
The family’s less together
Since we’ll miss her calm demeanor
For no matter what the weather,
In her presence grass was greener.
Now our lives have lost some luster
As our mourning days have started
And it might be hard to muster
More than being broken-hearted.
*My dear sister-in-law, Sharon Ferguson,
passed away unexpectedly last night.
