TO TOAD

"Zenejay's sick", I heard you say.
That\'s too bad, but he'll be okay.
He'll be just fine, but we thought wrong.
I think we knew it all along.
He wouldn't be with us to stay.
Now he's died and gone away.
Zenesha doesn't understand.
She's too little, I don't think she can.
To her, he's only gone to sleep.
Only dreaming, counting sheep.
He's gone but we are not alarmed.
He ran straight into Jesus' arms.
He didn't go away to stay.
Only gone up to Heaven to play.
Until someday we all arrive
In Heaven to begin our brand new lives.
He'll walk those streets of gold with us.
All of us whose lives he touched.
Little Zenejay's body couldn't bear the load.
So this one's for you, we love you, Toad.**

**I'm not sure about the spelling of their names. Zenejay is pronounced Za-nee-jay and Zenesha is pronounced Za-nee-shuh. Zenesha is Zenejay's sister. Toad is Zenejay's nickname.
