Analysis of Beautiful parents

joanna scott 1967 (Birmingham)



The stars in heaven shine
they are there for us to see
they are the light of our loved ones
who had to be set free

They were to tired for this world
and the way it has become
your in a better place now
my beautiful Dad and mum

May there be parties of many
up in the sky
may you have the life
that had to pass you by
