Nicole Joslyn was murdered 10/24/04 while she and co-worker Alan Lowrie were at work. They are the inspiration behind my poetry book and Journey to 1000.

Send the angels of remorse

A life ended too soon.

I never knew her but she was beautiful.

 

I wish I could have done something

If something could have been done

To be there, to be strong, to stand up.

 

She did not need to die in the dark alone

I would have held her hand and smiled softly

Innocently, she knows the way to Heaven.
