My Beautiful (Ada Is Her Name)

 I had a dream and in this dream my beautiful was there

She said “I’ll see you later boy!” I said “You come back here!!”

She answered back “you got 10 others boy - we’re all the same”;

I said “there’s one my beautiful – and Ada is her name!”

She turned and took my hand and said “This thing is mine to do,

you know that when I start something, I always see it through”

You’ll be ok there’s 10 still there, you know we’re all the same!!”

I said “I need my beautiful – and Ada is her name!”

Then from the shadows just beyond two images appeared

One big and tall, the other small - both smiling, silver haired

My beautiful said “Here they are, I called out and they came”

They came to take my beautiful – and Ada is her name!

The selfishness, the wanting with my soul to have her here

Has lessened now I know she’s with our Mum and Dad somewhere

What lingers still and always will – the everlasting pain

That in this life I’ll never see my beautiful again…

My beautiful has always been so beautiful to me

As in this dream as well as life unto eternity

I know there are 10 others and she’s right, we are the same;

But none are like my beautiful – and Ada is her name!.
