Never more will my heart lighten
at her smile.
Never more will her voice soothe away nightmares.
Never more will I race to visit for awhile.
Never more will I feel secure that someone cares.
Never more will we laugh at my lack of style.
Never more will I wonder how she fares-
For time goes by, and generations die,
leaving the rest of us to ask-Why?
