Bernie

An older great generation's gent
With a theatrical righteous bent
A second wife of fifty some years
 Set sail into the sunset - the tears
Were Bernie's and  as an afterthought
Life without Dottie is all for naught.
The last year he did battle with health
his breathing did not move well by stealth.
In a varied judicial sway
Fairness for his clients through the law
Fighting and advising  civilly
To  the end - he blasted on Broadway
When his ghost gave way to evermore
surrender - life's gone bunk vividly.
