Marilyn

How did she live so very long?
She was simply a woman strong.
After her husband’s tragic demise
she had to find a way to arise.
Under great stress she had to stay calm
to survive as a single mom.

To a life of service she was called
teaching those with problems to stand tall
she was their mentor and wise guide
and stood by them with great pride.

In a world of hurt and cries
she had a certain twinkle in her eyes
a sense of humor brought a smile
to you if you knew her a while.

She raised a son and taught him well
in a tough world to survive and dwell,
to make his way as a man
to use his gifts the best he can.

Marilyn’s spirit was gentle and kind
and anger was not her usual state of mind.
She must have had angels who stood close by
and when she was down lifted her high.

And now she dwells somewhere in sky.
And when we hear a moan or a sigh
think of her and the beauty of her soul
and ask her to make you whole.

Marilyn was my friend for many years.  We taught together for  years at Cedar Hill Middle School.  I will miss her although I haven't seen her for awhile.  She was a dedicated mother, sister, teacher and friend.  She loved to travel and learn, especially about history.  World War II was one of her interests.

David you have my sympathy for the loss of your mom.
