The sun has finally dared to toss her tresses
in a sapphire sky
in futile attempt to comfort a mourning expression.
A space devoid of a warmth that was there
a broken heart
in a silvery state of melancholy.
A spirit so valiant
riding the morning breeze of the country side
The soul of a hero
buried deep in dazzling diamond
A teacher is gone
one so wise and so brave.
A whisper escapes
from the lips of a son-
"Thank you."
