Here is a verse for Shirley Drury, my best friend these many years.
Old to be loved
Just as desired
A women of nobility
Not by birth, but adoption
5 am I, in decades count
Still a child in heart and love
Steadfast these many years in faithfulness
Opposing all the world’s selfishness
By divine grace strength was given
To match wounds with resolve
Love in purity and devotion
Expressed to others
Unlimited
My hand trembles more
My heart less
Some burdens cast off
Others endured
Am I the women I ought to be
Mercy and grace applied
I am
Most wonderfully loved
