Song for Ann Mari Sjögren

This is where we dance and swing
This is where we play
This is where we learn to sing
Here we greet the day.

Fly with me my dear friend
Taste sweet honeydew
Smell the flowers and transcend
Cry at skies of blue.

Feel the joy of nature’s gift
Tease the playful fowl
Swim and splash with trout a’ swift
And love when creatures growl.

Feel your wings and squeeze your toes
Caress the gentle fawn
Catch the acorns Squirrel throws
And pray at break of dawn.

But pause, breathe, a change has come
Rest in petal soft
Gentle fairies, calm your hum
An angel is aloft

The Goddess moon now has control
For we have lost a light
On this night we do console
A spirit, sacred might.

We fairies join a solemn ring
For one we have so fond
A queen that has just joined her king
And joined the great beyond.

We sing a song for Ann Mari
Ms. Sjögren we do hail
We sing a song for Ann Mari
Who always told our tale.

We sing a song for Ann Mari
And call for Freya’s love
We sing a song for Ann Mari
Release the sacred dove.

We sing a song for Ann Mari
We raise a hearty glass
We sing a song for Ann Mari
Whose art will never pass.

We sing a song for Ann Mari
With sadness and great joy
We sing a song for Ann Mari
All fairies will enjoy

The beauty that you brought our world
The sweetness so sublime
We sing for you dear Ann Mari
You’re with us throughout time.
