It truly breaks our hearts that her time was so short. A small heartfelt tribute to the little soul.....
Ode to Joy
A little Angel passes through
Our world of woe and sighs
Tears flow across the world
As we say our short goodbyes.
Angel we called you Joy,
To light a candle light
In the darkness of your journey
We tried to banish night.
Those beautiful eyes
Full of hope and light
Made us feel so briefly
Heavens warmth and might.
And when we see your eyes
Innocent of no knowledge store
It pains our grieving hearts
That they will cry no more.
You never spoke a word
A silent voice forever
But written in our hearts
A bond we’ll never sever.
We wanted just to hold you,
Cuddled close for care
To let you know it’s OK
That love is always there.
And that you are beautiful
And there is no need to fear
And that you are so special
In a world that needs you dear.
But it was not to be,
Can you hear our cries?
Today in grief we unite with God
And tears flow with his eyes.
So lie little Angel where little Angels lie,
Fly little Angel to where little Angels fly,
But stay little Angel in the hearts of all who care
And guide us all to that holy place
where love dispels despair.
