The Brightest Star
In honor of my mother's quick and quiet passing.

The Brightest Star
By Quizmo LaGrande

To golden light you pass,
A dilemma not your own;
Yet to those of us remaining
An emergency was known.

Though pounding intervention
To stimulate you through,
You choose to leave in quiet
To a better world, you knew.

A grander invitation,
Handed you in leaf,
You accepted in your wisdom
And excused yourself from grief.

No mischief meant your parting,
You cared and taught with love,
You're now the best and brightest Star
Shining, keeping watch above.
