The Light of Precious Doe
(A Tribute To One Of Our Precious Children)

Pretty browned eyed girl-
Your light of innocence taken from us
Taken in a moment of ferocious inhumanity.
The heaven’s cried and the winds howled
in agonizing grief-
Your smile no longer
filling the darkened corner’s of man.
We beat our chest and we lament in sorrow-
Longing to hear your childlike laughter
Filling
our heart’s, once again, with an abundance
of
calming peace.

A tribute to this precious child.
The winding roads and the evergreen-
Hold this child...
Surrounding her with warmth and a tender embrace.
Flowers and candles flicker in the twilight hours-
A gentle breeze caresses our tear stained faces as we look
towards the glorious heavens.
We pray to our Lord that He may watch over this
precious child.
This beautiful child
called
Precious Doe.

I saw her story, Bonnie...
and it was too heavy to lift
into a poem as well as you have done,
thank you for that.

And, as I haven't seen your lovely face
in quite a while...

welcome home!

Thank you for reading this tribute.I heard about the little girl and this came to mind when I was on my way to work on the bus. Then a few more lines came to mind in the computer room. I came home and put it all together.
Glad it touched your heart.
Hugs to all

this is a difficult subject to write about, but you have helped to make her light shine on...

I caught John Walsh on Larry King Live Last night, and it was indeed an education...he said, we've got to stick together, and become very vocal about this...so that the powers that be start to listen and make changes.  

Thank you lady, for putting this love from your heart out there in a lovely and well written tribute to a precious soul...

Hugs to you for this

Happy Friday!
