I Remember Her Poem by Francis Duggan

I remember her for her beautiful smile
And her down to earth ways free of conceit and guile
I often saw her in the park or walking on the street
And sad to think her i will never more meet
A eulogy was not read at her graveside today
And all is quiet now where her last remains lay
One who did not have children or to any man was not a wife
Quite moral in her ways one who led a chaste life
With shoulder length wavy hair of silver gray
She must have been a rare beauty on her younger day
She looked rather well for one of eighty three
But of a massive heart attack she died suddenly
Sad to think in the flesh never to be seen again
Though fond memories of her 'til death i will retain.
