Ann Louise
my best friend, my cousin, my teacher.
I still can barely breath your name for the ache
of your loss from my life
our lives
you did not even finish
climbing the stairs
the wind did not have time
to stir
and you were gone.
You had so many things
you wanted to do
a life you cherished,
the start of even more gifts to give
and gifts to receive,
the endless cycle of lovingkindness
to those who truly can touch
the world.
I am filled and formed with your gifts
and yet lost and shadowed by heartbreak
without you.

My cousin, my best friend, my teacher, my anchor died suddenly November 13, 2002 and my heart broke forever.

Dearest Jenny miss you
endlessly,
your humour, twinkle,
loving kindness,
knowledge,
98 years you loved the earth
and all who knew you
loved you back ...
