The Loss of a Friend

Dedicated to Anita...I will miss you

The Sun and the Moon and the Stars
are dimmed tonight in sorrow.
A spirit has left this earth
to enter the realms of tomorrow.
Many did not know her face
or the softness of her heart,
she'd been hurt so many times
so she often stayed apart.
But I saw a glimse of sweetness
the dew on the morning ground,
the sun that lights the day
without ever making a sound.
And I am so filled with sadness,
but I also must truly rejoice,
for she's now in the arms of heaven;
someday, I'll hear her sweet voice.
The Sun and the Moon and the Stars
are dimmed tonight in sorrow.
A spirit has left this earth
to enter the realms of tomorrow.
