Aunt Mabel

by Don Geiger

It is right that she is loved: her courage shinesin all the maxims that she does not drawfrom sixty years to warn our present joy.In all her tales, her husband and three sonsquietly keep the graves she bought for them.

But when, to show affection for my son,she gives him candy, who can bear her eyes?begging from a tiny serious idolforgiveness for the terrible gift of timeshe once held out with beautiful, ignorant hands.

My Aunt

by Megan Stokes

I thought I saw her face todayIn the sparkle of the morning sun.And then I heard the angel say,“Her work on earth is done.”

I thought I heard her voice todayThen laugh her hearty laugh.And then I heard the angel say,“There’s peace, little one, at last.”

I thought I felt her touch todayIn the breeze that rustled by.And then I heard the angel say,“The spirit never dies.”

I thought that she had left meFor the stars so far above.And then I heard the angel say,“She left you with her love.”

I thought that I would miss herAnd never find my way.And then I heard the angel say,“She’s with you every day.”

What My Aunt Meant To Me

Author Unknown

Aunts have no wands or wings,So they work with wisdom, love, and things.Having taken on this role,You loved me right down to my soul.

You offered kindnessAnd greetings with a hug and kiss,Each freely out of love which I will miss.

I chose a twinkling star in the sky at night ,To say a prayer for you to it’s bright light.You’re in God’s Heavens now and no longer in pain,In my thoughts, you’ll always remain.

How lucky I was,How blessed I’ve been,You were more than my Aunt,You were also my friend.
