June Wind

This is a sonnet I wrote in memory of my great grandma who recently passed away. Her name was June, hence the title.

My great grandma June lived to be 99 years old. Even though she began to slow down, her spirit never left her. A twinkle of joy was always in her eye, even as her memory faded. She constantly had a song that she would hum or sing. She would tell stories of her childhood to me and my sister. She will be greatly missed, but her memory will live on.
