 extreme poverty was no match for her spirit

Pearl


Her hands were gentle about the ills of children,
Her speech was measured amid the quarrels of kinfolk.
She held the sorrow that had grown unspoken
Till it was perfect as a sphere, a token
Of her secret, with a light that shone within
And stood, in an undropped tear, a sign
Of what enwrapped itself upon the wound
Again, layer on nacreous layer, around
The hurt till it transformed to stone, mild jewel
Priceless, modest, calm, and pure and cool.

Here lies the lucent Pearl on black sateen
That shall not often enrobe her like again.

Wow.

Pretty girl, she was.

But who inherited her good looks?

{#Whistle}

{#Cheesygrin}

 
She always hated her round face and I used to tease her that I wasn't too fond of mine either. She would tell me I should love it for it's honesty.{#Lol}I miss her so very much. All of us have suffered for her passing. It brought some things into focus for me.

To me she will always be.I'll never be loved or forgiven for my all so many mistakes like that.She was wonderful and I'll always miss her

But I'm gonna go to my grave knowing I did her right and took care of her.
 She died 47 minutes before my birthday,despite her horrendous dementia,I think she was trying to hang on.Poor thing couldn't quite make it.

  It just breaks my heart! You must have been a damn fine son. May God Bless her and hold her in the palm of His loving hand. Bless you too,Boke.

More so to my Dad. He hasn't even gone into their bedroom more than 2 or 3 times since she passed in 2008. The last time he had tears coming out of his eyes, and he is one tough SOB.

 It must be wonderful to love like that.
