    Forever Seventeen

    Joy and compassion

    Happiness and Love

    Our precious Angel

    Now watches us from above.

    She lived for today

    And looked to tomorrow

    Her life stopped short

    No more time could be bought or borrowed.

    Our hearts are burdened

    Tears fill our eyes

    Her tragic death

    Fills us with surprise

    Yet in our anguish

    Hope is alive

    Because with God, she has Eternal Life

    High in the sky

    Somewhere above the clouds

    She now lives with the Master

    In happiness, love, and peace she abides

    With God she will stay

    And we will meet her at the Gates,

    When our time comes to meet the Father and Son

    With a smile on her beautiful face

    She will embrace us all

    We miss her now

    But she wouldn’t want us to fall

    We will see her again

    That is a guarantee

    Our dear, sweet Amanda

    Forever Seventeen.

     

    Rest in Peace

    Amanda Marie Allison

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
