Smallest Wingless

Dear son, we've been waiting for you Thrilled beside ourselves that you've arrived White coats came in, heads held low Talked for a bit, shuffled outside We closed the curtains Held each other And cried We said hello at the same time that we said goodbye And smallest wingless, oh you came to us Leaving as soon as you'd arrived But sadness is just love wasted With no heart to place it inside We closed the curtains Held each other And cried We said hello at the same time that we said goodbye We closed the curtains Held on to one another And cried We said hello at the same time that we said goodbye --- Smallest Wingless - Craig Cardiff
