Once in a while your robin sings
when the winter storms roll thru
In a field of flowers I stand alone
and recall the beauty that was you

Like a comet of love you came & went
bringing wonder to our hearts
You left behind a legacy of light
When you returned above to the stars

Mother you are missed in many ways
From your smile to your soft skin
In the bluest skies I see your eyes
while I hear your voice on the wind

Once in a while your robin sings
the one you waited for each year
It lets out an uplifting song of joy
reminding me of sunny days not tears
