My Best Friend Tisha

A Poem...

My best friend Tisha…was a dearheart who left this world too soon…

Someone with a caring heart that shone luminously like the bright side of the moon...

Her departure left behind…

a humongous cloud of black smoke…

Her unfulfilled dreams…left to fester in the minds of those who knew her best…

like a splinter in a sore thumb…they continually poke...

My best friend Tisha was a regal, young woman graced with a heart... so pure...

A brash civil rights crusader blessed with a robust Faith that was never ever demure…

Babies, the elderly, and animals were always drawn to her bright light…

Her keen wisdom and sage advice gave many lost souls extra fuel for the fight...

Her "Go get em' Tiff" spiritual pep talks brought me safely through many-a-storm…

While her invaluable 2 cents always steered me… far away from harm…

Just like being without an umbrella in a rainstorm…her absence is sorely felt…

Thankfully, her legacy is sturdy and formidable like an iceberg… exceptionally difficult to melt…

**Rest in Paradise Scorpio Princess! You are truly missed!** 👑
