TODAY I CRIED…
Today I cried for Natasha
Because of the friendly twinkle in her eyes
Because of her little impish warm smile
Today I cried for Natasha
Because of the happy, secure childhood she had
Because all those who she met loved her dearly
Because of her loving parents, sibling, extended family & friends
For which one of their brightest stars has now gone dim
Today, I cried for Natasha
Student from the class of 2000, student of Yale Medical School
The brightest and the best
The profession she chose was to help others in need
Today, I cried for her mother and father
Who realize now, all of Natasha’s fears and pains are gone
That she is in a better place in the arms of our heavenly father
She will be one of the brightest stars in the heavens
But they truly will grieve for their little girl
Because they will always miss her physically here on earth
Today I cried for Natasha….. Our newest angel, shining brightly
