Allie's Song

While my eyes can see no more,
My heart can hear your smile;
And it hears the angels whisper,
I am here but for a while.
Though my arms no longer reach,
They feel your touch of love;
Just like the gentle touch I feel,
Of the Father's arms above.
And while my journey here on earth,
May not have been too long;
When you begin to miss me most,
Just listen for my song.
It will be there in the whispering wind,
In the melody of a child;
But most of all deep in your heart...
Just listen for a while.
I will always be with you,
Just a memory away;
I'll wait for you in my Father's arms,
Till we are together one day.
