She floated on air
As if suspended
By hot-air balloons
A spectacular ride
Her spirit as free
As seagulls ascending
Or eagles go soaring
Through mountain top clouds
Her laughter as joyous
As chocolate fudge sundaes
And time everlasting
In perpetual spring
The days rushing forward
And weeks disappearing
Time standing still
Yet gone in a flash
Like spun sugar melting
And reindeer descending
On rooftops at Christmas
A Santa Claus laugh
Today and tomorrow
Forever remember
The time shared together
A favorite repast
