LORINKEH

Goes all the way to the ground and back up with a towel

To Chubby Checker

Let’s Twist Again Like We Did Last Summer

Then there is Bugle Boy of Company B

Oh, You Doll’ and so much more

If I Had a Hammer, Limbo Rock…Oldies but Goodies

Admired how light and beautiful she was on her toes

Snatched a gold medal from the Queen in midwifery

Was still knowledgeable years after

Powerful fingers were able to manipulate

A breach birth or any problematic pregnancy

Brilliant humble and kind

Always high- spirited and patiently there

With family and her baby sister

Sunday trips to Aboku

Rabbit stews good food and snacks

Hours of picking fruits and enjoying the outdoors

It was pleasant being around her

Leaving was always a buzz kill

Fiercely stood up for her children

Would laugh for days after frantic rants with a broom in hand

Always the calmer sister

Would speak in tongue like a priestess

Then laughs heartily about it

An aunt that will be remembered as having the right touch

Will forever and always be
