As we walk
along life's road
The people that we meet,
Can change our life forever
And make us more complete.
I made a friend not long ago
Who's special as you'll see.
This very special person
Has made a change in me.
A girl so young
and innocent
With all in life to gain,
Came along to visit me
To share her grief and pain.
Thank heavens for this visit
For it was me who was to learn.
Her open trust and honesty I didn't have to earn.
Her shyness was
endearing
She hoped for many things.
She kept her arms around herself
Like tightly folded wings.
Inside I saw a champion
Beauty deep and rare.
I new she had a story
Which I was going to share.
But never did I
realize
She'd picked me from the start.
She knew exactly how I felt,
How much she'd touch my heart.
We shared our pain and sorrow
Our grief and many tears.
I wondered all along the way
How we'd over come the fears
She
did so much for us
She did it on her own
I was so very proud of her
And I was not alone.
Her arms began unfolding
Wings spreading just to see.
Butterflies are beautiful
And now this one is free.
The Spirit of Taylor
She made us laugh, she made us smile
she was only with us for a little while
But, remember her in your own way
and live life to it’s fullest everyday
For if there is one thing that she taught us
It’s to love and cherish those among us
So even if you’re sad and even if you cry
Do not worry about the reason why
Because even though we do not understand
He is with us holding our hand
Until the day that we all may see
the blessed secret called eternity
To question life is not a failure
Just always remember the Spirit of Taylor
