Soaring Forever

Now soaring high above the lands that form the Big Sur shore, her wings enjoin the wind and sky set free forevermore. Where hills, broad shouldered, meet the sea eternal, vast, and blue, and cloud-laced skies above the earth now greet her soul so true. She soars, a butterfly set free, o'er all her life has seen. Her memory, still rich to us, now shares its golden sheen. And longer than white waves have coursed the California shore, and deeper than the ocean or the heavens men explore, the gentle hands of God will guide her wings forevermore. For Nancy 7-16-15
