Patricia Kathleen graced the
World a few years ago today
seventy to be precise – with
a wry grin and a promise
born freckled with corsair’s
red hair that blazed yet the
temperament of an angel
bathed in modesty
her way was tranquillity
embraced in an unshakeable
accord which surmounted an
honest assurance replete
her legacy pays homage in
sincerity, a currency weighed
sweet in warm smiles played
at her seraphic feet
