SLEEPING BIRD In Memory of Bobbi Kristina Brown--March 4, 1993-July 26, 2015

Despite sorrow, grief

your smile stayed sweet.

 

Heavy pain you carried,

never letting you be.

 

Unanswered conundrums resisted 

parsing for one so young.

 

Yet all along there was the inherited

voice lying quietly within. 

 

Like a sleeping bird's

awaiting the dawn.
