Memory

Memory
 ( for my Mother, Juanita Fay Austian Neighbors)


You crossed the boundaries of life
to sail in Heaven's sea
and I was left to bridge the gap
between the world and me.

You left a child too young to see
you didn't choose to go,
a child who grew into a man
before he came to know,

that you left too, a legacy--
a memory of love
that God himself would be content
to be the owner of.


~ Dean Neighbors
