This is a perfect tribute to her. Lovely! As she was, always. You could always see her heart in her eyes.

This is really lovely. Cannot imagine it being done any better than you have, Kim. POTD, perhaps? Regardless, you have given Doris her day! :) gw

Wow Kim, You have brought memories back - fond and loving ones - my mother used to sing it to me also, as then as i got older my mom, dad and myself would sing it in the car, along with many other songs , but that was one of her favorites! Lovely poem. Hugs, Jennifer.

Well expressed. In my mind’s eye she was still young. I was surprised how old she was.

That’s what I was just saying to my coworker...they remain forever young to us :)

She was such an icon that it's difficult to believe she is gone. She gave some great films and performances, throughout the years; I am sure that she appreciates the work.

I stayed simple with my poem. My mom used to sing her song to us at night :)

We are all reminded that one day we must face death. But her sweetness lives on...
