In memoriam

"She did her best
and loved her best.
She gave all for
those given to her
by God to care for."

Reading the engraving,
the adult and the
child still in me
struggle to comprehend
the underlying message as
we feel the old hurts
that yet ache,
though my heart is
tender, softer, with
the reading of these
words,
still hopeful that
she did love me
anyway.
