In Memory of Caitlin Jean Vance
March 6, 1989 - June 26, 1996
Borne on a wistful wind
Weaving playfully upon the Harper's strings
The haunting melody of child-like laughter brings
A tear to weary eyes
Child of a cursed Clan
Released from the shackles of our mortal life
Drawn from the bowels of an existance of strife
Into strong arms of Love
Spirit of freedom flies
Mounted upon silver-winged steeds of pure air
Marking a passage by souls stirred in a wake of care
A sense of hope renewed.
