Читать книгу Of Death and Grief - S T Kimbrough - Страница 5

The author expresses deepest appreciation to his deceased wife of fifty-nine years, Sarah Ann Robinson Kimbrough, who in life and in death enriched his life with the fullness of beauty, art, and love, which his words can never adequately describe. This little volume is dedicated to her loving memory.

For Sarah

Though eight score years her life did last,

its final ending came too fast!

She laid her lovely body down

with pain and suffering as a crown.

Mercy with grace abridged her years,

and took her from the vale of tears.

Her gifts of kindness, love, and art

live on for ever in the heart.

God, her soul’s eternal Lover,

round her let your angels hover.

S T Kimbrough, Jr.
