MIranda's Loves *Verse 1* Born in Foster’s gentle hills, eighteen-oh-four, Miranda Wade, with dreams to soar, walked through life’s open door. With Simon, Phebe, siblings near, in love her heart was sown, A New England girl, strong and clear, in a world she’d call her own. *Verse 2* To Jonathan White, she gave her hand, in Glocester they’d dwell, A farmer’s life, a promised land, where their love would swell. Henry, Albert, Harriet dear, their children’s laughter rang, Through simple joys and fleeting fears, Miranda’s heart would sing. *Chorus* Oh, Miranda, shining bright, through the days and through the night, In the fields where love took flight, you carved your name in time. From Rhode Island to the skies, your spirit never dies, Miranda’s love, forever bright, in our hearts you climb. *Verse 3* To Killingly they made their way, new roots in Chestnut Hill, Land they bought, where dreams would stay, their hopes they’d soon fulfill. The world was changing, railroads grew, yet family held them fast, Miranda’s strength, her courage true, would bind them to the past. *Bridge* But 1850 brought the storm, took Jonathan away, Pleurisy’s grip, her heart was worn, yet still she faced the day. A mother’s love, a widow’s grace, she fought until the end, In Glocester’s yard, her resting place, where memories transcend. *Chorus* Oh, Miranda, shining bright, through the days and through the night, In the fields where love took flight, you carved your name in time. From Rhode Island to the skies, your spirit never dies, Miranda’s love, forever bright, in our hearts you climb. *Verse 4* Her children carried on her name, through years of joy and pain, Henry and Albert lit the flame, her legacy remains. Though Harriet’s path we cannot trace, Miranda’s love holds strong, A life of faith, of grit, of grace, her story lives in song. *Outro* Miranda Wade White, your tale we’ll tell, in the hills where your heart did dwell, Through the ages, your love will shine, forever yours, forever mine.
