Noel
She’s beautiful, draped in ribbons of light
She knows where to find silver secrets
Her blue eyes have seen magic in the night
She knows the whole story and believes it
She cartwheels through the summer sun
She pirouettes on violet moonbeams
Her dance has only just begun
Her music written on a heart’s dream
She’s precious, like a shimmering unknown
Yet every angel knows her name
We may never see what she’s been shown
But she’ll share it all the same
She alights like a dream on the edge of the wind
And laughs from within and without
Intertwined with light that never will dim
Her destiny sings, a whispering shout
She offers all that shines within her
To the ones she knows and loves
Hold her hand and feel your heart stir
Be swept away by a winter dove
Oh goodness, my heart. My Elizabeth. My Jesus. Oh goodness.
ReplyDeleteHow do you comment on that? Laurie, it moved me to tears. You capture the grace that is Lizzy.
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing gift to our precious Lizzy! Scott & Shannon, you have been blessed with this other worldy child. I know you are well aware of that fact. And your efforts in guiding and protecting her should be celebrated! Love and miss you all!!!
