A Jewel

Betty 5/2/46 - 10/30/02

I held a Jewel in my fingers
And went to sleep
The day was warm, and winds were prosy
I said, "Twill keep"

I woke..and chid my honest fingers,
The Gem was gone..
And now, an Amethyst remembrance
Is all I own...

Emily Dickinson

I will always celebrate the day you were born...Mom
