This poem was written and dedicated to my Precious Aunt Loretta
I Love you so much and will miss you Dearly. Love Valerie
Sweet Sunshine
I look at it oh so differently
what the Sunshine means to me
For Its your Sweet Smile that I see
When the Sun comes shining down on me
And when the sun is shining down
And I feel its warmth is all around
I close my eyes and you are there
And its been said by many - Near and Far
Sweet Sunshine is what you are
And your Sweet Sunshine fills my Heart
with such Beauty and such Warmth
As Bright as a Million Shooting Stars
Sweet Sunshine is what you are
I look at it all so differently
What the Sunshine means to me
For its your Sweet Smile that I see
When the sun comes shining down on me
A Special Gift from God above
I hope you know how much your Loved
I wish you hadn't gone away
I miss you more than words can say
I know I will see you once again
Your my Sweet Sunshine Until Then
Fly High my Sweet Angel....Love you More , Valerie
