Mariposa

On a subtle night, a gentle soul 
knew it was goodbye
Fearless Mariposa...
evening surrounds the sky
As blind is to faith
Oh Humble Mariposa...
your eternity had begun 
Life gave to you such sorrow .......
yet you smiled embracing Home  
Now silent, sweet Mariposa...
you gifted me to soar  
Embrace your Crown, oh Southern Belle..
you earned your sapphires and gold  

Ode to my Beautiful Mariposa 
....till evening bids me farewell....



Love you Mom,  
Till we meet again...
