The Light Upon the Grass

A coat the color of sunshine
A soul the essence
of a glorious sunbeam
A smile the musings
 of a brilliant sunrise

She laughed and played
like a curious sprite
with an everlasting smile
dancing across her face
to make the days bearable
in the best kind of way

She snored peacefully
amidst her fun-filled dreams
Her love coursed our veins
as she stamped her nose
in loving approval

But her smile
finally evolved into a sunset
and the soul
like all sunbeams
had to recede
 as day turned to night
Her sunshine got clocked
in for ever darkness
Our beloved Bluegrass
— Girlie Bear

    Oh, DB. I am so very sorry. I hurt for you guys. Girlie Bear’s poem is such a fitting epitaph. She does fine work.
