Baby Sister

Hush now my baby sister
Do not cry
You are weak but God is strong
The world is mean
But God needs you home.

I wrap you with love
And imagine you warm
Like a butterfly in a cocoon
Beautiful and innocent.

God created you small
So we can keep you in our heart
And he took you home
So we know the world couldn't touch you at all.

You are always with me that I know
For every time I see a butterfly
I know its you saying your alright.

Just know I love you lots
I know your name
But not your face
One day I will see you
And I'll just know....
I'll hug you and never let go.
