A glint of green
In her Iris -
Reminders of Springtime, in May -

When the White Daisy's bloomed-

And we spent time round'-
San Francisco Bay.

The blue waters, they enticed us -

Dipping our bare feet, from the dock -
Lapping up the crescents, of waves -

Passing time, with Salt-Water talk.

The Yellow Blanched Sun grew for us -
Bigger and warmer each day -

Oh, the things, we do remember -

When older-age, has turned, later life, into gray!

Theodora (Theo) Onken
