Darlene De Beaulieu Poet Ode

My Godmother Passed

My godmother passed
On August the 9th
Her age was 91 years 
A long life she had

A funeral gathering held
For family and friends
Only a party of 10 allowed
Then another group next

She was loved by family
As well as her friends
A very sad time for all
She will be missed

A cremation held 
A trip to New Brunswick
To rest with her husband 
They will now be together


She will be remembered
By family and friends.
