The Deceased Husband and the Living Wife Judith



David and Judith, even with David being deceased
Now pray Judith will soon be able tocope with
Her loss.

Prayerfully working puzzles and playing cards
Went well for the two of you;
The writer presupposing grumpy David not Judith
Was the boss.

Learn to keep the people in your life after
Your husband's demise, Judith.

The writer of this poem knows one in your
Life a smart, sassy woman fun to spend time with,
Talk about men our families, religion and children
and also to be with.

Sincerely yours in Christ,
