Jeanette


Lila Broadhurst

She was such a mixture of things;
Of lightness, and brightness,
And butterflies wings.

She was an innocent -
Not worldly wise;
With bright bits of heaven
A-dance in her eyes.

Her voice bubbled over
With such 'joie de vivre';
And her laughter was
Oh so infectious and free.

But the World was too worldly
For her tender heart;
And she was too fragile
For her earthly part.

And thus, to our everlasting regret;
Flew away our sweet butterfly -
Our lovely Jeanette.
