Karissa's Lullaby
Softly the snow falls on your grave
Adding a new lovely blanket for cover
Gently the wind keeps you company
They are your sister & your brother.
Soon flowers of spring will scent the air
And warm rain will wash clouds away
The little birds will surround you there
This is your family now, every day.
The sun will shine so bright sometimes
The moon will watch over your rest
The stars will twinkle just above you
These are your cousins, from east to west.
The ducks will waddle on the new grass
Deer may stop by now and then
A rabbit or squirrel will sit and nap
These are all your new best friends.
This town knew you well and loved you so
It breaks their hearts that you had to die
They'll visit often; surround you with love
Welcome back home; hello, not good-bye.

Oh Heather...Thank you...the visuals from your words bring tears to my eyes. My heart has been torn apart but the love and support of all those around me hopefully will help put it back together.
once again thank you for everything
