So sad to learn, today,
A friend has passed away
Her generosity
was limitless and free.
So much was in the sandwich
She bought to class one day
A present for this teacher,
Who loved her quirky way.
So sad to find her absent
When she was always here
Exuding bubbly humour
Which got us through that year.
So many fates were twisting
Our children grew and changed
Relationships departed
But our friendship remained.
So long, my favourite student
You’ve graduated now
The Alumni of the heavens
Will welcome you – and how!
😦
Yes, very sad. Lynn was a mature student in the first F.E. group I taught. She was always there for everyone, and made us laugh, too.
She sounds lovely. Thank you for sharing a piece of you with me.
Sorrow unveils so much compassion and beauty. Thank you for a beautiful life that one would never have met if not for your verse here. I’m sure your friend reads this and is smiling. Life is eternal I believe, it gets better as we move towards the light. Thank you for a precious share
She will definitely be smiling – it’s a privilege to share – thank you.
