Jan 7
Herby topsy-turvy
rolls down
the grassy knoll

Bowled over
One hundred
4-leaf clover’s

Smack dab
Inertia grabs
With a push
Forward whoosh
knocking
to the
ground

Little Wendy
Wiggly giggly
enamored with her
spiral jiggly Piggly tails

Both children
Feet in the air
Without a want
or a care

Laughter
Fills
The
Air

Gazing into the
Cerulean blue sky

Then they
Studied
each other’s eyes,
neither one cry
Nor asked why
They knew

This is how
they first met

A lifetime of Love
Blessings from
God above

Their tome remained
Traditionally
At home
As they roam

It became their journal
Life’s journey
Obituary
Finally
Their epitaph


No Regret
Mutual Respect
77 years
Well Spent
