(A Sonnet Inspired By Wattpad’s Gail Runschke)

It stands in salute to her, the once friend,

The little girl who loved it from first sight…

Yet it has company; the others and

Her grandchildren… Older now, with children

Of their own… It will never be alone…

Yet Gail has gone, her parents too, so to

Are her own children… Yet it stands with friends…

It stands, as a memory to all of

Them… It stands with majesty, which captures

All eyes, young or old... All seasons, from spring,

Summer, autumn, through to winter, it stands

With timeless spectacles of love, kindness,

Humanity and joy as its rewards…

It stands, as a memory to its friends…
