When doves cry

Her love was as pure 
as a snow white dove 
she put everyone first 
and made do for herself 
she lived for her children 
always the cook and baker 
to any party she hosted or attended 
people adored her skill 
although she led a remarkable life 
traveling and doing the things she loved 
she also wrote about 
the loneliness she felt 
and the sadness she lived daily
