he was her world
her day to day
her day to day
over 40 years
they loved their way
close so close
compatible and true
he built their home
just as she wanted him to
she is learning
to live with him not around
how to get along with new ideas
to keep two feet on the ground
she is motherly to me
gives me the best advice
smiling and laughing
with tears in her eyes
I do not know
how to absolve my own grief
when she is so much
stronger than me
I will take her ways
and adopt them as mine
I will laugh I will smile
I will stay good and kind
