Sweet Stars In Texas
Somewhere....in....Texas
....A Teddy Bear...
Stares at the stars, alone on her bed,
Waiting happily for her to come to home.
He recalls her ribbons, the brightest of reds,
Never knowing, in God's heaven she roams!
The girl's mother, tiptoes softly in.
Pretending that her daughter is still there!
She caresses the bear, an emotional win.
The mirror reflects sadly, the room is bare.
Tears on the beloved Teddy Bear start to fall,
She remembers her daughter's lovely toes.
Mother imagines she's coming down the hall,
Oh, to just once more, kiss her sweetest nose!
