On a sunny summer day A Golden Angel came to stay Before you we were a group of three When you came we became a family You brought love and joy to my life Enjoying every day you would strive You were my eyes so that I could see Natural beauty as it was meant to be You understood all my sadness Licked it away and filled me with gladness Your eyes were the window to my soul My deepest secret only you will know You were the best friend I ever had Always there both good days and bad You had so much love and strength I was proud and boast of you at length One fateful God took you home Now I am left all alone Your life on earth was far too brief My heart and soul is filled with grief I go through the motions of daily living But who am I really kidding All I want is to be with you My heart cries for the life we once knew This burden of sorrow and pain I will bear till we meet again
