Who She Was

She had style she was grace and possessed a pretty face. She was charming she was witty her childhood spent in the city. Lived her life with a passion she was never out of fashion. Make-up placed perfectly the hair and nails done tastefully. Oh so smart you could see any problems wouldn't be. She was tough also strong mostly right when I was wrong. She was neat kept things clean always nice never mean. She was kind she was loving didn't like people shoving. Liked to party a little booze and she had too many shoes! Never early often late left her greens upon her plate. Treated friends with devotion loved the beach and the ocean. Nursed my cuts when I did bleed tons of books liked to read. In a car not great you see passenger side instructing me. She was special like no other super Wife better Mother. What a woman a special girl she blessed my life she was my world!

Thank you Funom! I appreciate your comments, it is very encouraging! Much of what I write is to release the grief I feel over having recently lost my Wife to cancer. We were together since March 1982. Avis was only 55 when she passed away.
