GOODBYE FOR NOW, DEAR AUNT MARGARET
In Memory of Margaret Ann Paddelty Lewis

Sunset near Aunt Margaret’s houseAs the sun sets
Over the red stone earth
Tis time to say goodnight
While the day leaves its girth

Stars are ready to
Appear in its vastness
Tis time to say goodbye
To the reds, pinks, ‘n’ yellows

Prairie winds caress
Autumnal countryside
Tis time to bring in the moon
While the day begins to reside

A calming peace
Begins to reign in the land
Tis time for tranquility
Where our ancestors worked by hand

Good bye for now, Dear Aunt Margaret
It’s as if you’ve gone to rest for only awhile
Tis a saddened time as we bid adieu
To the journey you walked in this life’s mile
