In Memory of Avy W. (1981-2019)

Short Avy With a Long "A" Oh, my dear, short Avy with a long "A" I just learned of your sad demise today Full seventy days since you passed away Dark news eclipsing such a sunny day Last visit ended with you hugging me October's visit now will never be Hopes, dreams, goals cast aside as mere debris Life cut short, stolen by the enemy Your husband and son together do mourn Your mother and father both so forlorn Thirty-eight years from the time you were born Your young, precious life from each of them torn You will always remain forever young Forever precious and forever fun Forever kind, empathetic and sweet Forever found where love's memories meet May future's reunion as tender be Now forever safe in God's memory
