Her Mama Dies

A very heart-broken blue-eyed little girl held on to her daddy's hand tight,
as they walked along the beach barefoot, one hot summer night.

She couldn't grasp the reason why her mama was gone.
She asked her daddy if it was because she'd done wrong.

Her weary father sat down and sat her on his lap and said, "Mary,
my little angel, mama was very sick
with cancer, you see."

An Angel took her up to Heaven to be.
Now she's watching over you and me.
When your always smiling, so is she.
In her heart, you will forever be.
