Tears for Maria
Created by Georgios 3 years ago
We shed tears of sorrow and grief
her early departure caused disbelief,
for Maria was bubbly and intense
how strange to use the past tense.
Always a fighter for her ideas
a staunch opponent of any bias,
she shared openly her view
her friendship made things anew.
We shed tears of joy for a full life,
for her being a friend, a devoted wife,
reminiscing of her infectious laughter,
the way she shared stories and banter.
Remembering our talks and arguments,
for she was calling a spade a spade.
Maria no longer is with us, alas,
albeit her presence will not fade.
