Notes About The Poem

She was captured by the saddening of death. My granddaughter Ava Rose ( 3 years old) 

Telling Fairytales of She Who Wails

Melting my heart with flames of heated sorrow 
As I watch her sweet tears, I tissue my eyes 
Indeed, she is not the only one who cries 
Assuring my precious...a brighter tomorrow 
Explaining to her, a soul never dies 

Patting her back with her head on my shoulder 
Fairytales live, child...forever and ever 
She will understand life more when she grows older 
Brightening her face, from her eyes stormy weather 
She had smiled a great smile, from the last thing I told her
Humpty Dumpty, will be put back together
