Elizabeth

 

 

Elizabeth

The wind whispering I heard your name

Elizabeth not destined for fame

In my heart you are the glowing star

All my dreams I wonder where you are

 

For the soul is a splendored thing

It never dies it’s always on the wing

The butterfly flapping and the world knows

Love never falters it always grows

 

So lay your body to rest

You were one of the best

Not once an altered smile

I see you dancing in heavens aisle

Ah, there's so much tenderness in this piece. The word choice, rhyme and rhythm complement well with the concept of acceptance of things beyond our control. Beautiful.
