Hello, Little One...
those are birds out there singing;
they fly somewhere near heaven,
your former home.
That's the sun out there...
it lives near heaven, too,
and brings warmth to the earth,
your new home.
One day you will see the rainclouds
and dance after the rain,
you will watch the flowers grow
and praise the rain.
Hold the wildflowers
in your precious hands, behold the beauty.
What you are breathing is fragrance;
the flowers provide that sweetness.
Those sparkles you see are colors,
one of every hue.
Place them in your heart
so that you will never forget.
The majestic height you see from
your window are magnolias;
lovely diamond-and-emerald trees,
a gift from God.
Don't cry, Little One...
I will kiss your tears, and hold you
close to my heart
even from heaven.
