A gleaming star
Like a lighted ember
Brings us closer
In the gloom of December
The spark that was Alice
Shall not soon be extinguished
Her pain was unique
And truly distinguished
We shall carry on and recall
The impact her poetry gave us all
A faint smile glimmers
Maybe it shimmers
Our memories are fresh
With thoughts pointed but real
For the loss we can truly feel
Grateful we knew her
And may God shine through her
