Tribute to Callie, A Friend Lost Too Soon

In tender bloom, she graced this world,  
Each day the gift of love unfurled.  
For Callie, her name a tender song,  
In hearts and minds, her memory strong.  
 
A husband's love, a child's tender gaze,  
Bear witness to her life's enduring blaze.  
Though parted now, we feel her near,  
In laughter's echo, in each falling tear.  
 
She loved with passion, fierce and free,  
Embracing life with unrestrained decree.  
And though her journey has reached its end,  
Her legacy, undying, will transcend.  
 
For Callie’s beauty in form and soul,  
Through loves and loss, she made life whole.  
Though tears may fall, and hearts may ache,  
Her memory lives in her lovers’ wake.  
 
Rest now, dear Callie, in eternal peace,  
Where sorrows fade, and burdens cease.  
In fields of spring, where dreams still bloom,  
Your light so kind still fills this room.
