Becoming a Goddess

Your familiar smile floats by
    aching as memories cascade
          Your death a wicked punch
               our tears meet in phone calls
                    Your light now a bright star
                         sister, friend, mother, goddess

Hi, Jeanne! That last line reminds us of what we lose! I liked the emotive words you chose. Panagiota X
