A Little Ray of Sunshine

Amelia Rose

 

A little girl called Amelia, full of spirit and life

Was taken from us after a long and brave fight

Her curly locks of hair, her eyes a vibrant blue

Her smile so wide, but she was taken too soon

She’s gone from our eyes, but her spirit lives on

A little Ray of Sunshine and boy how she shone

 

We would climb every  mountain and rainbow high

If we could see her again and say hello, not goodbye

The silence in the house is so loud to bear

Every sound that we hear, a glimmer of hope is there

That she is not far away, just a moment away

That we can hold out our hand and see you again

We miss you so much, your laughter and fun

Our Little Ray of Sunshine, will live on forever more

This I believe and that’s for sure

 

In the arms of the Angels now, no more illness and pain

To be able to run with the wind in the sunshine once again

Heaven doesn’t just want old people to share this place

It needs the free spirit of children to full up the space

And now you are there, heaven is even more a special place

As you will shine like the stars, with your spirit and grace

Our village will not be the same now you are gone

But our Little Ray of Sunshine, your memory will live on

We will send a wish on a breeze, that you are free

We will think of you in Spring when a new life begins

We hope you are well and this we pray

And if you could tell us how you are, I think this is what you would say

 

Think of me as I used to be

When I was full of laughter, well and free

Free from pain and suffering at only four years of age

Which held my soul within a cage

And only heaven held the key

And only heaven could open the door and set me free

To fly once again and to be able to play

As I am never far away

As all living things that grow and thrive

Will never die, will all survive

As there is another world for me

I only wish this world you could see

So never think I am gone, because you cannot see me

I am always near

I can see and I can hear

I have simply left you for a while

And you cannot see me smile

But I am smiling from my special place

Far from the earth, but never far from you

 

Amelia you made us so happy and we will never forget

The happiness you gave us, so beautiful and perfect

Although our hearts are aching and we long to hold you tight

We will visit you in our dreams, when we go to sleep at night

So God bless Amelia, we know we will meet again some day

Mummy Daddy and Jacob will miss you until that day will come

When we are all together once more and we are all back home
