\"\"<\/a>Miss Margaret,<\/p>\n

Please forgive me —
\nthat I cannot distill
\nthe essence of my joy
\nin meeting you,
\nmy reverence in knowing you,
\nand my anguish in losing you,
\ndown to the single pinpoint of light
\nthat was your brilliance —
\na solitary point in the vast blanket of the universe
\nthat illuminates my life.
\n <\/p>\n

I am a better person
\nfor having known you
\nhowever fleeting a moment it was
\n <\/p>\n

And now, wherever your essence drifts
\nin the ebbing cosmic shifts,
\nI wish you beauty, and light,
\nand peace ever after.<\/p>\n

Thank you for being my friend.<\/p>\n
