Dear Sue

(Here is a poem Clyde wrote to Sue, the lady who videotaped the Memorial Service.
It should be noted she is a hospice nurse as well as a lover of birds.)

Dear Sue

Helping people die is a grace.
   Even on bad days, it
   takes a gentle touch --
Two birds flew over, when
   you weren't looking.
     They said, happy
     birthday too.
      
                  - Clyde
