Thanks Sam Sam was a young teenager. She was murdered.
This is my tribute to her.
Thanks Sam
I never knew you,
Yet, you were a friend, a companion
In this journey we call life.
My days have been many, yours few.
I never saw you smile, yet it was a
Beautiful creation, molded by the
Creator's hand, formed in joy,
Given freely.
We never compared dreams, yet yours
Were granted - you have now been given
New ones while I struggle still to attain
Mine before I leave also.
Raindrops fell in my eyes,
Clouds rolled and thunders rumbled
Through my mind.
Yet, I live in a land of sunshine and
Blue skies.
Winter's freezing rain ordered trees to bow
And bid farewell beneath saddened hopes.
I never knew you.
I didn't have to.
Being part of life itself, I see your
Brightness never dims.
Thanks Sam.
