Poem: Your Story


Under the cover the pages were blank, white, and stainless. 
The undiscovered narrative awaited a soul to give it life
Over time the pages became embossed with your wit, love, and laughter

A testament to joy !
An ode to beauty !

A soliloquy of service !
The pages took up meaning; to a people in search of hope

Each word a humble offering
Each page a light to others in need of a tender touch

But now as we reach the final chapter
Your story's sudden end

We will follow your example and honor all you've done
Committed to our friendships and loving those in need of hope.
