Nana’s Little Angel

Born so silent and still 1979 (New york)

Not a single sound was made,
Lots of Fallen tears,
Wishes you could say.

Hearts broken,
Words unspoken,
Not knowing what to say or do.

You came and left so fast,
But your little foot prints left a trace,
In our hearts is where they will stay.

Our little angel rest east and save nana’s place.
