The Last Breath

This is the anniversary of Elizabeth's Death

The day of my beloved's final breath

Into this last chapter I peek

The pure joy of our lives I seek

Yes, joy in boundless ways for sure

Yes, hardships, but rewarding, and pure

In the reaches of many a mind

She was one who was very kind

This chapter may be done

The next chapter has begun

She is still my unerring guide

A steady hand at my side
