About This Poem

Child of Love

Alive in hearts you served so well
Far b’yond the call; b’yond oceans’ swell
Come rain or shine you were always there
For family, friends and strangers cared

Child of love; reflecting pool
Mirror of your parents; God’s building tool
Foundation most solid, you withstood the gales
And mocking waves, arose, only to fail

You heard His call; you ran the race
Bathe in joy exquisite as you see his face!
God of Salvation, God of love
Who called you to Himself; your home above

Forever, you’ll be to your family left behind
Flesh of our flesh and of God’s Spirit, divine
~*~

    Ohhh, I am so sorry for your loss, your sister is looking down with pride at these wonderful words of tribute you have written for her. In the process you have given us a gift by allowing us to look in at this most intimate of experiences. I applaud both your courage and love, you honor her with both.
