Hazel was peaceful, the quieter one.
Hazel wished to ease her twin's grief,
Asshe knew her time on earth wasbrief.
Andwhen Raya hadgrownbigandstrong, itwastime for Hazel tomovealong.
Hazel whispered gently:
Eventhough I cannotstay, I'llstillbe with you everyday.
The time has come for me to go, but I love you more than you'll ever know.
I am the brightest star in the night sky,
a butterfly flapping way up high.
I am the dancing summer breeze,
and the golden autumn leaves.
I am the sand that tickles your toes,
and the sun that kisses your nose.
I am the sparkle in your eye,
and the salty tears you cry.
I am the dimple in your cheek,
I am the soft curl of your hair,
and the depth of your twinkly-eyed stare.
I am the gurgle in your laughter,
Your twin I'll always be, For I amyou and you are me. So when you feel sad orjust abitblue, take a moment and think ofme. Look in the mirror and right on cue, I'llbe smilingback at you.
