the girl in the sandbox, free from her cares
played without worry, the sun in her hair
with twigs and white flowers in braids twisted askew
and eyes sparkling with delight in her life now anew
a young thing, a spirit, now singing in peace
with a voice that spoke gently and by tenderness increased
the goodness and kindness, easily found
in the girl in the sandbox, whose loveliness abounds
a grey-haired queen, fair beyond measure
was the girl in the sandbox who's heart was a treasure
she touched many lives, was endeared by large and small
and even to final breath was most beautiful of all
though grimness and grief might stain a sore spot
in the heart stings of beloved, and to those whom she brought
great happiness and grace, warmness and love
and now these reign down with her smiles from above
----One last smile to fade from reality
A whisper of love, a shattered tear
A tender voice, a fleeting moment
A saturation
If love were an ocean
Can you tell me why you have been so sad?
Because things we done, things we've had
They're different no
So many things we ought to say
In grief we fade and fall away
And find that
