What  To Do                                       

There on a hill of daisies

That were blooming wild and free,

Sat Anita crying softly

While the waves washed in from sea

She glanced up for just a moment

Then closed her eyes in prayer,

Why is it God you have to take

Our loved ones for it's not fair

Why have you come for mommy

For she's only thirty two,

The Doctor gave her two weeks to live

And I don't know what to do

I have a brother and a sister

Both much younger than I,

How do I provide for them

Should I explain or should I lie?

Anita's eyes were red and swollen

As she stopped to wipe a tear,

Then a voice came down from the heavens

"I am here so do not fear"

I my child do not choose

Who should live or die,

That's just one part of living

That can't be answered with a why

When I provided life my child

It was there for you each day,

Some may live for many years

While others will pass away

Your mommy talked to me last night

Then asked if I'd explain to you,

She'll be right beside you every day

No matter what you do

You my child will carry on

Her shoes are for your feet,

So take the hands of your brother and sister

Together life we all will meet

Along with life there is also death

Which may come at any time,

You must not fear your walk through life

For there'll be many mountains you will climb

Even though your mom will be here with me

Our hearts will be with you,

Now walk through life with confidence

For you'll know what to do.
