Holly’s Garden Chicago
Painting and Poem by Rina Lucas
How cherished
Is the memory
Of our Little Man
With fullest heart
Cultivated continually
In this precious garden
To nurture souls
Nourish nature
And comfort the caretakers
Just as he did in life
And ever more
Will do.
Many thanks for sharing this preview of the exhibit with me! I look forward to seeing you at the opening reception!
