Dignity (poem)

I undertake these writings – and the sharing of them – for the sake of my self expression. I am under no particular illusions as to their literary merit, and ask only that any readers do not have any undue expectations. If you consider me wrong, then publish me – with full credit, of course :)

Please also note that I check only occasionally for comments, so if you make any, please be patient.

This is another poem written during the vigil at my (adoptive) mother's passing - one more to come yet.

Kayleen White

Dignity
Tho' body and tongue may loll and drool
There's no dignity lost here,
In this place, tonight
- how could any think such,
When this spirit's light
Outshines body's blight!
