Only you and I can help the sun rise each morning. If we don't, it may drench itself out in sorrow - Joan Baez


Your body has fallen asleep

Here on earth we all weep

Suddenly you were taken away from us

Yet as we mourn today

We must continue to trust

For Your plan, my God, has no falter

This we know on our knees, praying at the altar

Oh how so many will miss your precious being, for

your soul now belongs to Thee

Lets take comfort in that heaven is where

your home shall ever be


The author's comments:

I chose the "other" option, when choosing what kind of poem this is. It's an elegy. One of my best friend's mother died last week, very unexpectedly. This poem is for Ms. Alishia! We will miss you!
