the day you left
a raven soared up up and away
on an April morning
you noticed things like that
the beauty of all things
we were still on Earth
without grace
the day you left us time stopped,
the theater filled with memories of you
the ten thousand women you were
life is not the same
without the sound
of your voice
on stage and off
your passion for all things
we have all grown from the loss
and have suffered the pain
of losing a friend
at your vigil we lit candles in your honor
and sang, "Amazing Grace"
that song will live in our hearts
as a reminder of you
