LAUREN ROUSSEAU
** This poem is in memory of Lauren Rousseau, one of teachers who died in the Sandy Hook Shooting. Lauren died trying to protect children. Lauren was a gentle, spirited, active young woman, who loved kids.
Lauren plays duck duck goose with the children in Heaven.
Chasing each little angel around the circle until they burst out with laughter.
After playing duck duck goose Lauren and the chidlren float balloons into the world.
To be received by someone in need of an angel.
At night Lauren and the children dance around Heaven before flying over the world,
And protecting people in need.
While sprinkling a little love into their hearts.
