Poetry: Death of a loved one

by AnnMarie McGovern-Theriault

Created on: May 20, 2008

Sister never say goodnight,
For she walks swiftly in the light.

So straight and tall absent of pain,
At Heaven's gate she leaves her cane.

Not important is her style,
Her great new asset is her smile.

Her eyes are wide and without fear,
All passed loved ones meet her here.

Safe now in His mother's arms,
A breath away from hate and harm.

The tears are gone from what once passed.
Our Mother is at peace at last.

Just close your eyes, or have a dream.
Communicate on a sunbeam,

We'll never have to be alone.
Our Mother waits with God at home.
