Written for my aunt and uncle after their daughter died at the age of six from leukemia.

She came in all of life’s sweetness

Revealing to us love’s completeness

An angel fair sent from above

Given to us by the Father of love

Beautiful, she was to me

Bloooming so delicately

Like a flower in the spring

Awaiting her angelic wings

Her face, her laugh, and her smile

Given to us for a little while

Just as pretty as she can be

A lovely delight to us, was she

Touching lives of those she met

This little girl who was Heaven sent

Her life was shore, this is true

Gone, she was, before we knew

Not for us to understand

Reasons for the Father’s plans

On earth her task was now done

Her home in Heaven, finally won

Now walking those streets of gold

By God’s side, His hand she holds

With Angelic wings, she now flies

Soaring throughout Heaven’s skies
