Sophie

Little Sophie, an inspiration you are,
To have defied death twice, and your still here;
You have seen horrors worse that what we’ve seen,
And yet you fight your fight, and move us to tears.

To have your body burnt in unprecedented ways,
To have been pinned under that car, and still manage to smile,
Your story is one showing the real strength of God,
Yet you’re younger than six, yet as strong as thirty.

A nation as one, now united to help you,
To stand behind you every step of the way,
Keep your head high and your strength stand tall,
Little Sophie, you have moved us all.

Dedicated to Sophie Derezio, 5, whose story has literally moved me to tears. Keep Fighting!
