The Lady's Place
(A poem for Edith)

The lady fixes up her place
It suits her very well
Each room reflects her charm and taste
As visitors can tell

The soft blue kitchen colors soothe
The eyes at morning tea
All her special touches prove
How warm a place can be

Stacks of CD music line
The floor awaiting play
And it would suit the lady fine
If guests would dance all day

Around the floor they’d totter
As their second childhood calls
From charming “Harry Potter”
Posters lining all the walls

And when the music fades and guests
Depart, and she’s alone
In her cozy little nest
She feels so much at home

The bathroom ‘owl’ “hoos” in the night
As owls oft prefer
The lady’s place is grand, just right
Because it’s just like her
A Poem by Anne Rosario

Can I cry when you are gone?
Can I just thank you for everything you've done?
Can you just let me love you for a little while?
Just enough to make you smile?
You gave me something no one could give,
To cherish the life that I live
You taught me how to love you
Never jealous, always true

We took the sacred vow of honesty
And yet I never really told you
The emotions buried in me
Is as simple as I love you...
