To    Terri....  
My Special Angel
Up Upon the clouds,
Just past the Milky Way,
Amongst the flowers,
Sound Asleep...
Lies a little angel,
Small, but full of spunk,
Short, Curly hair,
Eyes full of light.

Soft jasmine petals
blow across her face...
Calling her name...

Terri.......

She wakes up, and looks down
upon the Earth...
She sees how much she was cared for...
Loved and adored.

People are crying, screaming WHY?
Others are sad, stunned, not understanding..
How one so full of life...
Could be taken so quick...

There  stands a solumn girl
Dressed all in black.
Holding a basket of
Jasmine petals..
Her heart is sad, still in shock.
She understands that her best friend...
Was needed by God.
                       She Speaks:
"Much too soon was she taken,
This one who shared our lives.
The One that was always there,
to lend a ear, to sympanize.
Tell a joke, share a song...
Much will she be missed...
In every thought, word and deed.
Please hear me now,
How much you meant to me.
I admired your strength,
your willingness to combat it all,
Your independence, your inner fire...
Yet there was the part of you,
Who only wanted what was best for me, my sister, your friends, your family...

You were the big sister
perhaps the mother...
I needed throughout these twelve years.

Thank you TerriBerri,
I love you always."

The little angel smiled big,
As it  started to snow.
She will always be there,
Always to know,
Protecting us, guiding us...
In spirit, in love,
From Above.
