An old friend always said ‘walk away!’
When her family comes to see her nothing else matters,
No one can really feel our empty hearts,
Missing family I do alot,
I went today to see her,
I rang six times,
The door opened a cracked,
I heard no one’s there!
Door closed,
Tried all day call her,
Text her,
Both phones are off,
I sent emails.
Traveled over seventy miles to say hi,
To give coffee,
I tried yesterday to tell her of how unsafe it was here in Quasqueton,
No response,
The memorial for her mother in law was yesterday,
Laura was 103,
An artist and a hell of a lady,
Laura would have opened the door all the way and asked me in,
I will miss her as much as I will miss Pat,
