I whispered your name into the breeze
the trees answered back with Hallelujah's
for you have left us here without you
now you run and skip through heaven's gate
angels waited by your bedside day and night
comforting you with words from God
your body grew weaker but your spirit strong
'til it was time for Him to take you home
from heaven's rooms you look down on us
I still feel your love and inspiration shining
the angels assure me of this indeed
that God knew to give you purple wings.

in loving memory of Beverly, 2/15/50-9/5/99

A very lovely tribute. I am writing this with tears in my eyes. And my favorite color is purple too!
