" For Jessie and Daddy "

  For Jessie and dad Erik Rees

A little girls voice cried out to me,
to never ever give up.
I sat up night after night and understood what.
But a sparrow landed on my window sill,
with a message in it's mouth.
Things I never heard before,
began to come out.
A sparrow cannot talk to me nor any thing I knew,
but still the sparrow sang to me NEGU.
for days I wondered what had happened,
and wished someone would tell.
but upon my bed where I lied dying,
I heard those words so well.
I'm not a sparrow who,s calling you,
don't you see my smile?
upon my bed where I laid, I heard this beautiful kid.
She said to me get up and try,
and never ever give up.
I reached my hand to touch her face and then she was gone.
But not in my eyes or in my heart, did she walk away,
but she tried so hard with her frail life, to help us find a way.
I asked the sparrow to let me see,
this little heart that cares
he cocked his head and looked at me,
as if to say.
God loves even a little sparrow who falls asleep in death,
but by our last breath, those are with us, He told me to tell you to never lose faith,
because yes, God is great.
I don';t take children away, from someones heart,
there is something much better, whether you lost your faith or not.
for every child who is gone, a sparrow sets their wings.
just as I promised, I take care of them.
And every so often there are ones who are special,
like this little girl you miss,
she is helping all of us, and just remember this.
we live in a world where we want to give up,
but here comes this little girl,
she probably has the heart of God,
that will save this world.
