Picture by Josephine Wall

* * *

I wrote this for my friend, Katrina,
whose first born child was stillborn.
Although time has helped to heal, the
sorrow and deep loss remain.I dedicate
this to Craig Aarsman who would have
turned 10 last month and I hope my
words bring some comfort to my dearest
friend.

* * *

Your angel smiles from heaven
He looks down on you each day
'tho he may not be with you
In your memory he will stay

Your angel smiles from heaven
From you he never will be far
You can see him every night
For he is the brightest star

Your angel smiles from heaven
You'll feel his presence day and night
When your life has lost direction
He will shine his guiding light

Your angel smiles from heaven
He'll always be a part of you
Even in your darkest hour
He'll turn your grey skies to blue

Your angel smiles from heaven
On silken wings you'll see him fly
'tho time goes by so quickly
Your love for him will never die

Your angel smiles from heaven
He'll always live inside your heart
Your love will always be eternal
From him you'll never be apart

* * *

"We are all angels with only one wing....
we can fly only by embracing each other"

I am in motion
I am blue
Love is an ocean
I'm anchored in you
