He’s laughing and dancing
Surrounded by love
Delighting in colors
Seen only above
Our Johnny, in gardens
Designed for the meek
He's playing alongside
A clear crystal creek
He’s gazing in wonder
As heaven gives birth
To stars that will guide us
And brighten the earth
He’s leaping in foliage
Of emerald so green
Reminding us always
No tears must be seen
He’s writing a message
From pen of gold ink
“Weep for me no more,
When upon me you think”
“Remember I cherished
A smile, not a tear
And donned my bright halo
To mark a leap year”
“So shine like a beacon
Send grief on its way
And shed no more tears
Till four years from today”
“From wings now departed
These words I have sent
So you’ll know in your hearts
I’m at peace and content!”
