I dreamed I saw Ruth Thone last night,
Alive as you and me.
Says I, "But Ruth you're eight years dead."
"I never died " says she.
"I never died" says she.
The Gathering Place was your heart's cause,
dedicated to helping all.
But now Pete and Jim and Deb and Mike are trying to steal its light.
"They never cared before" says she.
"They never cared before" says she.
Rebecca Shacklett, Lincoln
