Katie Rose


Ms Katie smiles the pain way
inside a broken heart…
A lifetime filled with tragedy
her dreams were torn apart

A childlike heart worn on her sleeve
most precious to us all…
So fragile from the many blows
at night her memories call

She sometimes speaks about the one
who swept her off her feet…
Across the ocean far away
a soldier she did meet

A lovely bride so much in love
her dreams had all come true…
A baby boy would soon be born
In time they hoped for two

A rainy Monday changed it all
his plane fell from the sky…
A widow with a little child
for months Ms Katie cried
