Missing a Gracious Poet
Heaven gained a saint.
Earth now mourns.
A family grieves.
Someone is missing.
I feel the void and
The absence of
A puzzle piece,
A masterpiece,
A person of peace,
most kind and poised.
We never met,
Nor will we in this life.
I was touched by her spirit,
And it was warm.
I was delighted to have
Commented on some of her poetry.
I was honored that she
Commented on some of my work.
I felt a bond and a connection
In the way she spoke of 'family life'.
Brought together by the Poetry Soup family;
I am moved by her demise.
She was a pearl of great price.
A treasured mortal has left this planet.
