My Tasha

Tasha, my Tasha, why did you leave
Still today we stand here and grieve
At fifteen years young, you left us behind
So lonely without you, out of our mind.

Oh, Tasha, my Tasha, where did you go
to a land full of flurries, a romp in the snow?
Or a place full of sunshine, breezes and birds
can we come play there, or is that absurd?

Run, Tasha, my Tasha, when you can see
your daddy just threw your favorite frisbee
or a ball, bouncing high, to catch it, or not,
you are one special lady, never to be forgot.

Sleep Tasha, my Tasha, how we miss you so
your pain has subsided, it was time to go.
Cross the rainbow bridge, wait on that side
we will see you soon, you can be our guide.
