Writings Library HAVE YOU SEEN MY DAUGHTER, LORD? She’s five-three with shoulder length brown hair. A smile that everyone remembered and adored, With a personality like she didn’t care. Remember the day you gave her to me? A precious little thing so full of life So innocent to the world we see Her youth so full and bright Oh she had to grow-up too fast Could never wait for her tomorrow’s In her mind nothing would last But she had hid so many sorrows. You picked her up high When rough times had her down She was reaching for the sky And turned her life around We were all so proud of her With all she had done Eighteen years of life- It is hard to believe So full of ups and down Than most will ever see If only we had seen that night- My little girl with her heavy load She might be coming home tonight To be protected from the cold So Lord, when you see her Please hug her for me Tell her we all love her And someday her smile again we’ll see. MITZI’S MOTHER Written by: Trisha Johnson It’s been a year now Since you’ve been gone To see you bounce through the door Or hear your laughter- we all long. But all we have now is memories To treasure in our hearts Memories of all our good times The bad ones we’ve forgot. For you’re among the angels now Many that you know- There’s Papa Pool, Uncle Charles, And now there’s even Josh. Watch over your three brothers A guardian angel they need For their hearts are tender Please set them at ease. Our life’s must go on Though we’ve shed a thousand tears We just cherish what we Had in your short eighteen years Love you, Mom Written by: Trisha Johnson December 2, 1998 |
