BONNY LITTLE LASS by Grace Catherine Card

11/8/2006

A young lad was sent away to the brightest of the shores, where he hope’d he would be follow’d by his bonny little lass.
But she found of the news he was swiftly sent above, as a bullet reach’d the centre of the young lad’s heart.
An angel fair was sent down to tell the little lass, that she would be united with her long lost love.
Graced was she by the swoop’d down maiden, as she wept for him when she flew ashore.
“From the land of the winged, I be” said her, and she said he was peace’d, by her love evermore.
The fair girl, but a lass, was now heartened by these words, and she thanked the good angel, who was flying now away.
To the brightest of the shores she swept the little lass,
in the mystical land where her love lay.
“Coming back, she must be,” said he ever bright, and the lad then came swiftly, to his bonny little lass.

SOON MY HEART WILL HEAL by Grace Catherine Card

11/8/2006

soon my heart will heal,
as grey clouds fade away,
and rain drops down my cheeks,
will dry the tears away.
when the dieing of the moon,
beckons the brightest dove,
no more will my heart ache,
as i think of you, my love.
for every day i see you,
in the brightening of the morn,
and in the twilight listening,
through heavens golden door.
but no more will you touch me,
or grace my presence with your's,
no more to hear you sing,
or whisper through the door.
and when i touch your cheek,
you softly fade away,
to be with ones who faded,
years ago today.
for this day is a day,
to pine for loved ones lost,
in days of bitter darkness,
in the shadows of the halocaust.
