Sonnet For Three Women

Three women's deaths have diminished me, because I could not get past my ego. For the rest of my days I will always be totally in their debt. How do you go about repaying a departed lady? Perhaps, begin replacing your thoughtless deeds, each one, until you've forgotten your lapse. To compensate, if one truly heeds all those women in your life that continue with patience to overlook your own failings and your part played in the venue of cultural misogyny is to loan them all the support, love. encouragement that you can. That is truly just and meant.
