Inner Woman

Chapter The Toy Collection



The woodchuck sits upon the shelf

His faux fur soft and fuzzy

Recalls a time of travel and fun

Togetherness happiness adventure

A summer of carefree contentment

Thumper the rabbit

From an anniversary sweet

Given with love

Sweet grey face brings

Bittersweet stabs

Of love long lost

Jimbo the elephant

His wise happy face

A friend’s gift of comfort

As a husband is mourned

Bob the dog

His spinning bone

The song he sings

Valentine’s day’s

Steadfast love

Always there

Scruffy the arrogant

Bear

Another gift to remember

A life together

Although he’s gone

Soft stuffed comfort

A friend who cares

And still there are more

Stuffed full

Of love

Of memory

Of life

Silly souvenirs

Simple signs

Sweetly on the shelf

Of a life well lived
