The Bride To Be

She gave those hills a distant look,
Turned and smiled at the trails behind,
For soon she'd lay on the cool green grass,
And let life's soft tune charm her soul.

She watched as people danced around,
Their restless souls, their dreamless lives.
Will they ever know
That soothing calm she held inside?

Friends and loved ones
Circled her, adored her
Held her tight, sang her tunes,
Then whispered softly last goodbyes.

She has been
A precious one,
A star that shines,
The firmest mind, the softest heart.

Darling Shirsha,
Its your turn to sing your song,
To hold your brush and paint this life- bright red, light blue
Or any colour that you please,
The future unfolds in your palm.

Sail ahead,
Sweetest one,
Shine your light,
To you we sing on this starry night,
Our very special Bride to Be.
