Little Flower

no one to protect, precious lily of the field beauty rare and joyous life taken long before its time Lily, Lily white and spotless small and sweet but tortured she fragile, gentle, caring Lily dancing, singing, playing, laughing life cut short by senseless rage bruised and battered for no reason by a monster with no feeling Jesus, keep sweet little Lily tightly in your loving arms kiss her, hug her, hold her closely wipe away her earthly tears now she’s safe and free from trouble no more harm will come her way Lily, Lily precious Lily in our hearts you’ll always stay
