Mrs. GCH

Today our darling Anne began
her journey beyond the stars--
This new adventure is solely hers
but the loss is solely ours.
Look up tonight, you’ll see her soar--
Sweet Molly by her side; 
Glenn will smile and stroll nearby, 
but Irish Anne will ride.
Her sterling wit, her sparkling eyes--
We’ve known them all too well; 
their loss becomes much more profound
by the tolling of the bell.
The world is ever blander now
and harder still to smile--
The cleft impressed on all our lives
will hurt for quite a while.
Tally Ho, dear friend, hark to His horn; 
green pastures for you abound--
Just don’t forget those left behind
and once in a while…look down.
