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
Insured songs
