For Bonnie and her loved ones....

Remembering Mrs. Griffith

I remember, Ms. Bonnie and the day that we met
was she rich(?), or did it just seem that she was jet~set??

She was there at Oak Tree with her two daughters...
with their amazing Morgan, Kiko, who was her eldest daughter’s.

Her younger daughter, Stephanie, had a little pony poo,
she was as black and as cute as a little bugga boo!!

I came to know them as "The Griffith’s".... you know,
whether it was practicing, lessons.... or at the horse shows.

Their Dad was Ken, and he was Bonnie’s husband,
I remember seeing him drive his white car and making the horses go abuzzin’.

She used to make jokes about ‘Here comes the beer’...
although I knew, that this was her way of saying, "See, we’re all family here!!"

I know that today, and this week has been rough,
Your thoughts are probably everywhere and you’re not sleeping enough.

But the Bonnie I knew would want you to be,
everything that she taught you, and then, showing her somehow, so she could see.

I know she’s already in heaven and there being a clown,
also that she wouldn’t want her loved ones to be sad, or to frown.

Your Mom was amazing, I know you know it’s true.....
She was classy, sassy, sweet, and sensitive, too!

She will be missed by many, I’m know, my family too,
I know she accomplished what she’d set out to do.....

She raised a beautiful family that I know, I will always remember,
it seems like yesterday, that rainy day I met her, maybe in November?
