Nettie
lived a
long life,
ninety-
seven
years before
going
to God.
One stormy
October
night, she left
a bag
of bones
in a
hospital
bed and
lit out
for the
cosmos,
rising clean
through
driving rain.

...The long, thin thread of her life woven in yours represented in form as well as verse. Your gift honors her life.
Peace
amen....
