The Mad Woman
We sat side by side for many almost twenty years
Sharing a million laughs and a bucket of tears
Helping each other through the long work day
Caring for patients, working together along the way
Intuition told me we'd be friends from the start
The experience of years revealed her loving heart
Now we've each taken a different life track
But I know that she'll always have my back
When life is hard all I have to do is place a call
Marsha will be there to catch me if I should fall
At times we were pretty crazy I must admit
I called her MAD woman, it just seemed to fit
I feel so blessed to still have her in my life
Sharing the past and the future, our joys and strife..
