I cannot replace a loss like Kathy

Who inspired my world of rhyme

Who encouraged my neatest metaphors

And urged me take the time

She cheered me to the loftiest

And made me reach plateaus

I never even knew before

I'd have the will to go

She was a poet and an angel

This human in disguise

She touched my life and made me see

A world beyond my skies

She kept my quill original

And made my words more wise

She'll come by I know she will

Each time my fire dies
