TO LINDA LUNT WITH LOVE.
by
Rosemary Clarke
Your
wheelchair never held you back
In fact
you were so driven
To never
let the illness win
You were
a gift from Heaven.
And on
first Tuesdays you would come
To fill
us all with laughter
And we'll
remember you with love
Forever
ever after.
Your arms
were always open
For the
hugs you always brought
And
happiness and joy and fun
These
were the things you taught.
You
talked of Jesus like a friend
As though
he lived next door
We
thought that it would never end
We want
you back for more.
But
angels are sent so rarely
And we
know we were sent one
We
Bookworms all are grateful
For your
lovely sense of fun.
We'll
miss you in Rayleigh Library
When
Covid's gone it's way
But we'll
love you and remember
For the
rest of all our days.
Thank you
for being a Bookworm. You'll always be special.

Sounds like an in memoriam poem reminiscent of Tennison. Lovely sentiment Rose.
ReplyDeleteNever knew the lady but this a lovely memorial to her.
ReplyDeleteNice tribute Rosemary, lovely poem.
ReplyDeleteHi, I don't know you but have been searching for my old friend linda for years. We went college together in Runcorn when she lived here. I'm heartbroken to read that it appears that she has passed away? Could you please email me on Hinicolanicholls@gmail.com 💔
