To Diane
Your melodic voice cannot
be silenced.
It is harmonious,
unique,
pure as the dewdrops
filling the air with
overtones of joy
echoing laughter
while expressing life.

A voice
birth only from
a glorious, mighty,
faithful, an eternal God.
A Lord who rules
the heavens
and the
earth and reigns
forever and ever more.
Amen.
