A pearl, a fragment of spiritual time
A jewel … in transformation
Sharing a perfect soul,
in a world of imperfection
with such small, yet great measure
Ikeila
Forever shine
Blessed are we who have known your spirit
Although home has been confined
within white walls since birth
You’ve spared a smile of love and courage
To help renew all broken wings of faith
By showing how to give … to give of love so freely
Smile on in wonder, little blue eyed babe
Rest your tiny breast from labour
Let soft blowing winds
keep you in God’s memory,
While cherubs comfort you in sleep with tender song
Until we meet again in paradise,
Sleep so silently with other wee souls
who share the journey’s wait
Peaceful baby’s breath
on soft spoken sighs
Sleep, sleep, little one … in lilacs
and fields of clover
Lavender to lay your tiny head amidst
Petals of rose tears, fall on paths
and we shall not forget how great a love
that one so small can bless anothers heart
My little one … I love you … know peace
Know rest … bless you little pearl
To my beautiful little granddaughter Ikeila Elizabeth Aspden
