Poem for a Leaving Coworker

LEETA

Leeta has been a constant for a very long time.
From selling software on premises to selling it online.
She was needed for her knowledge and loved for her zeal
And respected for her bluntness and keeping it real.

She made us all laugh with her tireless wit
But also had deep wisdom and guided others with it.
She offered compliments where due and corrections when needed
She leaves good memories behind and expectations exceeded.

She will be missed for her work ethic and good attitude
And for making the lunchroom smell like Indian food.
She will be missed for her speed at getting things done
And for her rivalry making company picnics more fun.

Of course, we wish her luck and every good thing
That this new opportunity could possibly bring.
But for every phone conversation heard through the wall.
We will miss it, Leeta. We will miss it all.
