shirley hedrick Biography

You gentley picked me up in your arms
I could feel your heart beat against mine
...

I close my eyes and my thoughts wonder off to a special place
Theres men, women, even little children roaming about
No worries, pain, or sorrow in sight only joyful tears and laugther
As the clouds pass I stand in silence my head bowed
...

I headed off into the night, not knowing where I was going
...

I'll always remember that day in may 1983
I was standing at the foot of dad's bed
...

My days are getting longer.
My nights are getting lonelier
If only I could see you
My pain would be easier
