Beautiful Hummingbird

September morning came my beautiful little hummingbird you must have known something terrible was about to occur Your life was about to be cut short…. That night I was at your side my crying I was trying to hide Seeing you in a helpless state I knew you wouldn't be able to take A vibrant and fiery person so full of life Always willing to give and not take… September morning I could no longer sleep The night before I prayed my Lord your soul to take My spirit is restless and no one's awake I went for a drive my heart was about to break… September morning you were all alone As I sat in the car feeling something was wrong my soul is in despair I can't be strong Lord wake her and her life prolong... September morning as I look back You were with me that morning I felt your embrace Your place in my heart I will never replace Seeking my memory for the image of your face... September morning as we looked that special plot suddenly a hummingbird hovered just above giving us a sign this is were you will be laid to rest Looking out my room all the hummingbirds hovered offering comfort to a heart in darks cover… September morning the Lord opened the gates to a Beautiful Hummingbird like no other This Beautiful Being is my Mother never to be replaced by another.
