The were both lovely, most said heaven-sent.

Dear Sweet Lucy Loo
"So friendly, and so true. That was our Lucy Loo" By poet
Dear sweet Lucy Loo, how I’m missing you.
It’s tragic that we had to let you go,
but it was something that we had to do.
Someone else will love you, and this I know
because you have such sweet and loving ways.
When I first saw you, I

Where is Lucy What has happened
I had not heard from my friend Lucy for several months
She had not responded to the last three texts I sent.
I texted her this morning “are you okay?”
A typed transcript came back this afternoon.
Three months ago she was loading groceries into her car.
When she turned to get her purse, it had been stolen from the

Lucy the Saint Bernard - Crossing the Rainbow Bridge
Lucy’s earthly journey ended
and she is now in Pet Heaven,
just a mere five years old, but she left a hole the size of the Grand Canyon
in the heart of a blue-eyed earth angel.
Karyn waited at the big gate for her,
arms open wide,
tears streaming down her cheeks.
Her sister’s, Lulu — her beloved dog —
took her final

Linda Lucy May Kays Attractive skirts
Her skirts lands against her springy step in a pretty way
Swirling around her luscious legs with an extra sway
She’s an old- fashioned woman, our Linda Lucy May Kay
Wearing silky nylon hose nearly every single day
Sailors all along the channel and down the bay
Will testify to what I have observed and now say
Her swishy skirts often

Goosey Lucy
In a humble hamlet, not so grim or glum,
Lived a goose named Lucy, quite the funny one.
With feathers fluffed and waddle wide, she'd roam about,
Her honks and hijinks would make the townsfolk shout.
Goosey Lucy, with a gait so giggly,
Tripping through the town, she'd make the old men wiggly.
Her antics were

Sprucy Lucy
Sprucy Lucy watering blooms
As pooch lounges, the kitten grooms
Each sprout peaks out toward the sun
Rising in vibrant hues who’ll stun
Lucy speaks sweetly to the pup
As she watches kitty act up
Picking bright flowers, just for fun
Rising in vibrant hues who’ll stun
Sprucy Lucy loves Summer’s buds
Watering each shoot til’ it floods
Her friends know she can’t be outdone
Rising

Lucy
Foundation of the piece.
Mother's play such an integral, important part of a child's early life. And expands into everything else.
If you're lucky.
This piece is just a simple representation of that lasting legacy.
Did your mother leave a secret room in your heart, where she still lives?
Title:
Lucy

I once held tightly
With small arms
A white

Lucy, I'm home!
Her name is, Lucy
Her twin is Ricky
He is green with Envy
Because I’ve left him behind
There’s no ‘splainin’ to do
Nothing more to pursue
I just simply knew
All I could do was sigh
She purrs like a kitten
I was totally smitten
When my eyes
First upon her
Did lie
My thoughts preoccupied
By my diamond in the

FOR LUCY
What a wonder you are!
A gift from the universe,
The practical one.
Always so poised
Even when afraid
You are your mother’s child
Always knowing what you want
And getting what you need.
Your star will never burn out.
In your quest to succeed
There was never a question.
A friend, a daughter, and more
Now a bride, beautiful in lace.
My heart swells with pride and

Lucy Lee Malady
Kept her malady a secret from the suiters who were smitten was Lucy Lee.
She rapidly dives from insanely happy to a blubbering withering sad little me.
Keep it to yourself her parents told her sisters and brothers and often too.
They wanted to get her married off, and sent off to Detroit, Miami or Timbuktu.

Lucy Dances In the Moonlight
Lucy is down by the old pond again tonight
Dancing with her giant rodent by the moonlight
They are a truly familiar loving sight
To the cattails and stars that gleam so bright
It just isn’t the best thing, it is not quite right!
Says her grandma, who has always been uptight.
Her parents roll their eyes and turn off their

For tonight I’m feeling nice and juicy
Ted appeared unclothed
With assets exposed
For the sake of a strawberry smoothie.

Lucy
In the Sun gold land of grass
Lambs and sheep therest they graze
Lucy wandered first in lanes
Then she in the meadow gazed
Wherest children ran and play
By the Grove of willow tree
faster than the starry fays
To the noisy field she flee
Children laugh therest and play
It was but a heaven's scene
Rarest wonder of the world
Was wonder

Coronation for a King
(Charles Philip Arthur George - b. 14 November 1948)
I had a cousin called Charles, said Aunty Olive.
Nice young man. That's him on our TV.
That's not cousin: it's King, said Aunty Lucy. It's King Charles.
Now watch it all on this TV. It's a TV, Olive, a TV.
It's nineteen fifty-three, isn't it? asked Aunty Olive.
I remember Victoria.
