The Original Poem...

... that makes my #TiaraTuesday this week all the more emotional.  My friend wrote this poem right after Mama died.  This poem just makes my heart break, mend, and re-break.  Gosh...


By: Jayde Contreras

A beautiful spirit,
Though her body was broken.
She could make you smile
With every word spoken.
The cancer may have taken
Her breath, bones, and skin,
But it would never take away
The lasting impression of her grin.
Though her life was too short
By our standards and time,
HIS timing is perfect
And planning is even more fine.
Just think of all the pain
She no longer has to feel,
All of the tears
That are no longer real.
She's probably sitting
Right next to Him now;
She's most certainly still a princess
With the most beautiful crown.
Though physically she is gone,
Not a part of this Earth,
Her happy spirit lives in our hearts
Which is of oh-such worth.
Her family gained an angel,
A beautiful one at that.
She has reached the Kingdom,
With her King at last.


Love you, honey.  Thanks for this beautiful reminder.
