Jewel You Certainly Were Poem by AHO Speaks

More and more people I have known are starting to leave
So close to my age and time to grieve?

I will not acknowledge my presence is coming to an end
Or our gift of life was only a lease it did send.

A journey that will come to a close with a final farewell
My parting words to be; 'I love you and it was swell'.

A co-worker for over thirty years has gone her way
Good times to remember of you; Jewel O'Bannion; I say.
