Although I saw her only twice
In the bleak light of the hospital room
She shared with her husband,
Her beauty truly shone, lighting her person
With a soft aura of
A peaceful and flower filled garden.
When she smiled it caused this viewer's heart
To pause, then beat on with enduring, increasing
excitement.
A woman to demand a hero's worship,
But her modesty proclaims true innocence
and peace!
