A Poem for my Dear Jenny

1991 - 2007

The day before her passing I called my dear best friend And asked her if she had some time Some time for us to spend She never paused one moment Or gave a second thought A characteristic I learned about friendship One that Jenny taught We are very blessed you see When it comes to the word “best friend” Not only is there Jen and I, with Stacy we make three We laughed we talked while the children played their games We watched the fireworks and their magnificent light Though together just for one last time it will never be the same But in Jenny’s words it was indeed a perfect night That night I dropped you at your door I hugged you told you I loved you I wish the feeling that I had I didn’t just ignore I would have held you tighter and begged you not to go I would have done so many things My love for you to show And though this is goodbye for now I know we’ll meet again There is one promise to you I vow My dearest and deepest friend Though some might call you daughter, sister, or friend Your son will always know………. The angel he calls “Mom” for him I’ll surely show Love Forever and Always....Alicia In Loving Memory Of: Jennifer Maxine Smith
