MARGARET
Margaret was not, I say NOT a "yes" person.
Needless to say, she "pushed my buttons" regularly.
But, oh, how she made my day when things went wrong.
For, at just the right time, she said just the right thing!

How I will miss Margaret. How indeed!
Thank you my Margaret - for being!
You still are - and will always be - my strong right arm.
Though others will help me through the rest of this present path,
I will always hold my breath just a little until that glistening day when we meet
Again to plan for another future walk together.
Until that day I thank God daily for your being you!

I felt your every movement
As you kicked me in the ribs
I imagined the life I'd give you
All the pretty
