As i look into the sky,i see your smile through the clouds,as the flowers bloom your presence will remain, as the storms pass your spirit will still live on and their will be a day where life will go on. You have always been so humble and kind,God put you here for us to get to know. As an example of his love.Such a good spirit gone too soon.As the night comes and i think of you i will look up at the moon.
