To Auny Miena (Wilhelmiena Daniels –nee Cupido)
She finally departed
Those left behind
Gathered
In her memory
I was not one of them
My goodbyes
Taken long before
When I could
Look her in the eyes
Expressing
An earnest thank you
A conscious I love you
She finally departed
The last in her line of siblings
Small and frail
Back to the childhood of her dreams
Safe with Mamma and Pa
Passing life along the way
Her presence no longer today
We will all go some day
Until then
I am glad our final goodbyes
Were alive
Maybe it will be a while
Before I will once again cry
