Prairie Bloom

The prairie bloom,
A cabin’s rose
Fading, slowly dies.
Pinkish in hue,
Though sprinkled with dew,
Her petals now few.
Life ebbing away,
Day after day,
Only can pray.
No strength to sustain,
Nor hand to maintain
Or ending of pain.
Enduring so long
Soul now is gone,
Such a sad song
Committed to ground
No longer bound
Soon to be crowned
Adversity done
New life is spun
Awaiting the Son!

My wife Patricia went home to
be with the Lord in August of
this year after suffering for two
years with Lou Gehrig's disease.
