For Beckie-Boo - her favourite song and cause. FIGHT CANCER
The Wind Beneath my Wings has Gone

The wind beneath my wings,
I think it’s blown away.
It left in such a hurry –
So much was left to say.
Sorry, you hate us moping
Sadness was not your way.
You only loved to sing and dance
And above all, to play!
I’m sorry if it hurts you,
You deserve no more dismay,
But I love you and I miss you
Even more than before this day.

You sang that song a few months ago,
You loved those words, the tune.
And then I sang them back to you…
With my voice choked, cheeks strewn.
I’ll say no more, because you’d stir.
Still, it breaks my heart, B-B,
To see what has been done.
You didn’t deserve it – nobody did.
And no one does today.

You didn’t manage to Breakthru,
At least, I don’t think.
But maybe in your eyes you did:
I only know I’ll think of you
Whenever I see pink.

Remember Miss Rebecca,
All of you who knew her.
And even if you didn’t,
Just think of what she did.
She inspired her fellow humans
To do what she could not.
She would have gone so far…
She must not be forgot.
I am proud to have known her,
She taught me how to care,
She’s left us now, but don’t despair
Even though,
The wind beneath my wings has drifted away…
She’s gone to a better place.
Let’s stop others from seeing
The problems she had to face.
