With her young friends children games does play
Going back in time some six decades ago
In her early seventies time has become her foe
A widowed great grandmother eight years ago her husband Jack
Died rather suddenly of a massive heart attack
For months she grieved his passing but time is grief's healer she say
And he is now alive in her memory today
News of a fomer friend's passing of late did move her to tears
They were best friend in their childhood years
They went on different journeys in life
She raised her children in their hometown as a local man's wife
The sad news of her passing brought back memories of a happier time
When they were children long before their physical prime
Before her yearn for adventure took her to elsewhere
To try out her luck in the big World out there.
