Lyrics to Song for Sophia

We were asked to write this song about Sophia - a four-year-old girl from Scott Depot, WV. We asked her what she liked, and she told us: "dragonflies, butterflies, and nature in general". "Sophia" means "wisdom", so these lyrics resulted:

I like the rain upon the shore
Bittersweet lift and I want more
A reason for seasons to collide
Crushing the sky

The sun falls on cedars over me
Just like a bird who needs no wings
Beautiful reason for this light
Innocent life

The dragonfly lifts into the sky
Kissing my whole world goodbye
Chasing the stars he fades tonight
Piercing the veil as he pierces the sky
Into the heavens we will fly
Life of a child
