No I don’t tire of her smile
Her face is new each time I look
Why she is merry- in my book
A rare and unused word- no guile
Straight merriment she offers only
Given that, could I be lonely?
I often remember her image when
I’m down I easily recall
Her, powerful- though she was small-
She lifts me into life again.
And she is dead, supposedly-
She lives for many- especially me
