FAREWELL LITTLE BIRD
Farewell sweetest little bird
Some things we'll never know
Like why you had to leave so soon
So hard to let you go
The world has lost a shining star
My God how you'll be missed
But we'll think of you each time they play
A song by Taylor Swift
And we'll hum along to Hamilton
And bop to School of Rock
Whilst picturing you with your phone
and crisps, watching tik-tok
And we'll see you in our mind's eye
With a makeup brush in hand
Our brightest spark, so good at art
Your home-made cards so grand
And we'll smile as we remember
All your funny little ways
Your wit and clever mimicry
How you savoured food for days!
The way you loved to splash and swim
On sunny summer breaks
And even once joining the ducks
on Helston's boating lake!
We'll always laugh on your behalf
At Central Perk Friends' chatter
And Dumbledore we'll still adore
And we'll still 'heart' Chewbacca
And we'll feel you when the yellow sun
Breaks through a patch of grey
Your favourite color - happy
Just like you were every day
We'll hold tightly to these memories
And we'll hold on through our tears
To the blazing ray of sunshine
That you were for fourteen years
You gave so much, the warmest hugs
And bucketfuls of love
But now you've found your wings to fly
You're free to soar above
Our precious lark ascending
Our inspiration and our song
It's so hard to be without you
But your love it will live on
Through forever magic moments
In our hearts you'll still exist.
For you were our joy,
Our light, our hope
Our everything
Our gift 🖤
