Little Wing
Poem for The Loss of A Child

Fly, fly little wing

Fly beyond imagining

The softest cloud, the whitest dove

Upon the wind of heaven's love

Past the planets and the stars

Leave this lonely world of ours

Escape the sorrow and the pain

and fly again.



Fly, fly precious one

Your endless journey has begun

Take your gentle happiness

Far to beautiful for this

Cross over to the other shore

There is peace forevermore

But hold this mem'ry bittersweet

Until we meet.



Fly, fly do not fear

Don't waste a breath, don't shed a tear

Your heart is pure, your soul is free

Be on your way, don't wait for me

Above the universe you'll climb

On beyond the hands of time

The moon will rise, the sun will set

But I won't forget



Fly, fly little wing

Fly where only angels sing

Fly away, the time is right

Go now, find the light
