In Memory of Cannon Hinnant

Little five year old boy
Just riding his bike
When a man came along
And cruelly ended his life

The boy was sweet
And gentle as can be
How could anyone take a life 
With such Animosity?

He had his whole life ahead of him
And it was sadly cut short
His beautiful smile, his laugh
Are no more

I hope there is justice
For this poor little soul
Though now he's at peace
In the arms of the Lord

Rest in peace little angel
And though our hearts break
We know you're in Heaven
And out of harm's way
