Tia, we'll miss you.

@TiaLBrink.  We'll miss you.

Why? The brightest shining lights

full of love and joy and hope

always first to go? 

Grief, the pain of loss

settles over all of us

a heavy blanket.

Teardrops raining down

souls in pain crying out to

the one who has left.

Don't go, we need you!

family, friends, and your child

all lost without you.

She would want laughter

recounting happier tales

even you Cooley.

We must remember

to hold each other gently

and say, "I love you".

For we never know

when a last day is dawning

or the end is near.

So I say goodbye

to a very special soul

we'll miss you Tia
