A Poem for Joni:
Who will cry for little Joni, lost and all alone?
Who will cry for little Joni, abandoned without her own?
Who will cry for little Joni? She cried her self to sleep.
Who will cry for little Joni? she never had for keeps.
Who will cry for little Joni? she walked the burning sand.
who will cry for little Joni? the girl inside the woman.
Who will cry for little Joni? who knows hurt and pain.
Who will cry for little Joni? she died and died again.
Who will cry for little Joni? a good girl she tried to be.
Who will cry for little Joni, who cries inside of me?
We will cry for you now Joni. Now you can be free.
