On cold winter nights
I see the rainbow dancing lights,
and in times of trouble, they comfort me.
In summer, the midnightsun
shines its brightest night lights.
And on this warm Spring night,
an extra starlight
shall shine in northern sky.
And I know that it's Ginger,
saying 'later' to her Pops,
as she points to another
twinkling star above,
the one that's been reserved
for her earthly father,
who always gave her
neverending
unconditional
LOVE,
and always will.
For Ginger will always
be her father's
beloved star.

"And unto each
a star is assigned..."

Speak in fervent voice that the light will find its way through to all that you describe

Thank you, for your replies. Words are all I have to give for now, in addition to a tiny donation (sharing with others, via Mysteria and Martie) sending flowers.

Noah, we will all remember her, through her father's love and grace.

Lyra, tears are good sometimes. I think my eyes are still puffy today, and this time, it's not from the high pollen count.

This is so beautifully said, Kacy....such a loving statement about the relationship between father and daughter.

Kacy,
===============================
And on this warm Spring night,
an extra starlight
shall shine in northern sky.
And I know that it's Ginger,
saying 'later' to her Pops,
==============================
And I'm missing her tonight! Bless you dear friend.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.
