Sweet Dear Marge Oh, that we should be so respected, and so beloved If miracles were based on how much one is loved then Marge would ink her pen today. Her words were the soft whisper of wings in flight Half gliding, in full smile, full of wondrous delight a world made smaller since she couldn’t stay. Such warmth and glow exuded in her words of magic Beautiful Storybook Woman, with ending made tragic Weight of sorrow is ours to bear May the outpouring of so many softly ease the pain To the family, from her friends, in an angels refrain Heaven shines brighter with Marge being there. When living a life was harsh, she was there with a hug A Woman of Gentle Miracles to make one feel snug For each of us, she had time to give Uplifted with her spirit, and guided by her glow It’s by her example, that we know which way to go She taught us how to love, taught us to live The world can never repay Marge for all the love she invested in it. |

~sigh~ I'm supposed to be working but can't. nor can I blink away the sorrow. Marge, when I first got here, as ShadowRider years ago, encouraged me weekly to write. I won't forget her, the kindness or her words. Ever ... jeff |

I'm deeply sorry for your loss. It happened before I joined this hallowed place of penmanship. But that was the most beautiful tribute poem I've yet seen. And it makes me truly sad that I never knew Marge. With love and respect. |

ShadowRider!!! Hi, I remember you! It's been about 6 years since you last graced these pages under that name! I recall you writing a memorable poem, as well, for when Madame Chipmunk passed away. I adored Lyra, as well.  Linda |

Marge was right, you should keep on writing your beautiful verses. I think she encouraged us all in one way or other to keep expressing our feelings. Thanks, Titia Like scattered leaves...my words will flow |

"For each of us, she had time to give" She did indeed...I know I was blessed to call her friend and sister. Thank you for writing this, Jeff. |

The best we can hope for is to pay it forward whenever we can... and we'll still be in debt. This is beautiful... thank you! |
