Dancer in the Sky: A Poetic Tribute to the Life of Alyssa Josephine Baye (7/1/88-3/25/11)

Dancer in the Sky

by Felina Lune Kavi


The music lifted her spirit to move,

Cascading to rhythms that followed each groove.

Sensations to dance sent her floating along,

Lending to lyrics her voice for each song.


Dancer in the sky

Spin your spirit so free.

We will sing, play, and dance

Like you want us to be.


This beautiful girl left bare footprints on Earth,

Casting her light on true love and its worth.

The music plays on, and her spirit as well;

The people she loves have her story to tell.


Dancer in the sky

You inspire our hearts.

We will sing, play, and dance,

We will be living art.


Smiling along with our love, light, and laughter,

She is celebrated now and forever, and after.

All the people she knew, all the souls that she touched,

Can all feel her bliss just from loving so much.


Dancer in the sky

Move our bodies in time.

We will sing, play, and dance,

We will let our light shine.


Her soul paints a picture, lively colors and love;

Her memory moves with the rhythm above.

The songs that she sang echo into our minds;

She sees how our lives are so sweetly entwined.


She’s in the wind that will shake us

Or the breeze that cools sweat.

She’s in the rain that will cleanse us

So we’ll never forget.

She’s in the sunrays that tingle

On sparkling skin.

She’s in the dirt we kick up...

Let the dancing begin.
