Connie's Song

What an incredible thunder rang out,
When Connie's song was done...
The angels hushed their voices~
They knew her time had just begun!

With her sweet song lingering in the air,
They gathered around her gently,
Wings folded softly there.

With the heart of a mother,
Wisdom of a leader,
And the beauty of a friend~
The spirit of this lady,
It really has no end...

I used to write her messages,
And wait for her reply,
Now when I need answers,
I look up to the sky,
Where her star shines brightly,
Not so very far.
I hear her song bravely playing-
Whispering soft notes in the wind.
Resonating and touching
Those who were her friend.

When last she closed her eyes,
And slipped from our dear hold,
Peace and joy filled her,
Let that much be told.

She spread her sunshine to others,
And now is receiving her own.
All that she ever gave us-
In smiles and kindness and love.
Comes back to our lady in Heaven
Where she sings on from above.
