To an endearingly, special lady, alas,
taken a path 'pon th’ land of promise.
Th’ present loss, our dear sister Vilma;
sweetly, pious medley’s doth sing in awe.
~*~
A flight unto our heavenly Lord, embraces;
all your heartfelt love and angelic graces.
With true tenderness and dulcet harmony;
to carry her soul abounding to atone, duly.
~*~
May th’ angels of mercy sped forth their wings;
to encompass your sweet soul and heal, they sing.
A loving song to soothe and nourish our torn hearts;
unto a tranquil rest, doth guide her peaceful impart.
~*~
May she sit at th’ right hand of our Lord's dais,
and kneel before th’ golden gate, with appraise.
To languish in HIS tender path of heavenly blyss;
please share in th’ warmth of HIS light, a loving tryst.
