In time of pause, a journey mends, Vikki's knee on the road to ascend. Healing whispers in the gentle rest, As days of hope cradle her best. We'll miss the spark of her vibrant grace, Her laughter, a warmth no days erase. But soon the sun will rise anew, And welcome her back, beloved and true. Wishing strength and patience, too, For brighter days await with work to do.
