A little girl I once knew-
She could'nt speak a word...
But she could sigh and she would make
The sweetest songs you ever heard.
She lay in bed and unlike me
She couldnt move around...
But she was free like an angel
With a peace that was so sound.
Her eyes would look deep into mine
her face would shine with light
And when I sat next to her bed
This angel was a sight...
As I would talk she'd listen
But would not say a thing
But I loved to visit her everyday
what smiles she'd always bring...
She always knew I was there
My face she recognized
I could see she loved me so
By the look that filled her eyes.
People stare in pity at her
but they dont have a clue-
Tho she's not like the rest of us
She does what we cant do
Her contenment lies in her heart
for a song of freedom she sings
For shes not tied down like all of us
She floats on Angels wings...

For my niece Tiffany..
