I agree with Eric; Peg already said it all. But my dad thought I should post this, so here it is:
Like a Campfire
There are those who know her better; There are those who know her less. I, poor deprived me, only met her a few years ago, at best.
But in that time--that short time-- I grew fond of her quirks fast. Her smiles and laughs were prime spurs for our every joke and jest.
Because she had that rare gift Rarely noticed, well I know it, For achieving that incremental shift of cares and aches away, to let comfort sit.
Her acceptance and kindness Are unforced, warm, like a campfire chasing away the cold; the mindsets of fear and shields that make you shyer; But without hiding a single star. By letting you be who you are.
Perhaps this is why she does what she does. I hate to admit, I don't know her that well. But I do know her enough to say this: I wish I knew her better, and longer, because she is the best.
