Life Celebration | Aunt Karen

On a visit to my Uncle Rick and Aunt Karen’s, we have found ourselves attending memorial services…

Though to a Doctor of English
these rhymes may be drivel
Karen has always inspired me
and spared me literary snivel

When I blasted an e-mail
about living in a red state
Karen’s was the first response
because she could commiserate

I looked up to Aunt Karen
over so many years
as a woman of independence
with the courage to face her fears

She has a keen sense of humor
and an intelligent wit
not scared to point out
when the village has an idiot

I love my Aunt Karen
and I really do miss her
I was hoping that on this visit
I would get to hug and kiss her

But instead I’m hearing stories
more than I ever did know
seems funny that we wait
until it is time to go

If there was one message
I thought Aunt Karen was giving
It would be to seize the day
because life is for living
