Sweet Sue

...for Sable


In clouds of purest gossamer
she floats in perfect bliss,
earthly woes behind her
she is blessed with heaven's kiss.

Remembered here by everyone,
her heart a lightning rod,
saddled up and ready, now
she's galloping with God...


Note: for a dear friend
         on another site
         we just lost...

My thoughts and prayers are with all of you who will miss her. You wrote a lovely poem in her honor. My poem yesterday was also dedicated to someone who will be sorely missed, the world is less brighter now without these two remarkable people. Love, Carrie

My deepest condolences, Keith. I'm always sad to hear of an artist's death. I hope she is doing just as you described, "galloping with God." Love, Carolyn
