Not sure what to say?





It's so hard to believe that I will never see my "Barb" again. Her lovely photo sits on my desk in a frame that I bought yesterday. Barb would have really liked the frame, because it sparkles a little bit - just like her. Over 20 years, most of the time we were "sisters". But some of the times she was my "daughter" and other times she was my "mother"...it depended on what we were talking about. But all of the time, we were friends. I miss her very much.

Nature

As a fond mother, when the day is o'er,
Leads by the hand her little child to bed,
Half willing, half reluctant to be led,
And leave his broken playthings on the floor,
Still gazing at them through the open door,
Nor wholly reassured and comforted
By promises of others in their stead,
Which, though more splendid, may not please him more;
So Nature deals with us, and takes away
Our playthings one by one, and by the hand
Leads us to rest so gently, that we go
Scarce knowing if we wish to go or stay,
Being too full of sleep to understand
How far the unknown transcends the what we know.
