Shirley Sterling during the height of her Ballet performance career

Still Elegy

We joined our lives together
as we planned to save the world
We modified the weather
and our flags were furled.

The world still needs saving
from disgrace
the Power’s misbehaving
and I know my place.

Though you are not still with me
I do not despair
I know that you still miss me
as I breathe the empty air.
