Baby in the Grave
By Ally Fazio
Maura Isles is completely alive,
because it was Maura Doyle who had actually died.
Her mother Hope had buried her in a tiny casket,
visited her on her birthday in that same jacket.
What she didn't know,
was she buried some one else's woe.
That her baby had not been buried,
that she did not remain in that cemetery.
That Maura remained on the earthly plane,
that she grew to live up to the meaning of her name.
She wasn't the baby in the grave.
Maura Isles is truly great,
trying her best to lower the crime rate.
A coroner with a good sense of right and wrong,
proving to the world that women can be strong.
Her father lied about her life and death,
her mother thought of false baby's breath.
Maura Isles a medical examiner,
with her best friend as her partner.
She may work on the dead,
but it helps the living in the end.
She wasn't the baby in the grave.
Maura Isles Style Queen,
who knew a coroner could be as stylish as can be.
Maura Isles is Patty Doyle's daughter,
but she doe not think of him as her father.
She grew up with a family of another kind,
but she loves them still through all different times.
Maura Isles is helpful to many,
She gives back to others in plenty.
Maura Isles respectable woman,
she does things others wouldn't.
She wasn't the baby in the grave.
Maura Isles is completely alive,
because it was Maura Doyle who had actually died.
She wasn't the baby in the grave.
