Evening

Now I lay me down to sleep

between this dance of dusk and dawn

The heavens rejoice as souls do speak

 of an angel that did not belong

She denounced her wings to be born on earth,

to endure the suffering of life;

She blessed this world then had to return, 

to her home in the evening sky.

I dreamt of her the night she left

and sought the face of God;

He simply smiled and wiped my tears, 

As he spoke these words out loud

"There will be questions that remain unanswered,

with little reasons why

If you should seek solace and understanding

just look toward the evening sky."

Written by Christie Mack  for Tania's funeral
