Mystic Rose Rose Poet Couplet

God Walks Warmly Alongside Death Dedicated

Between the silence of a sterile room and a child of grace 
the sure footed arrival of a God without a face

The hourglass of time stills the stage with un-remission 
as she waits by Snow Don Hills without contrition

A floodlight of compassion eases in she's not in pain     
her soul is a lit lantern that's never smelt the rain 

Wearing a tallit with knotted fringes on each corner
He's opens every angle like an Angel without borders   
 
Dressed in a dignity gown and propped against a pillow
she dances with the bunnies beneath a weeping willow 

God takes her little hand in His, its simple so precise   
just like sunrise in the morning, straight from paradise.

Terrell Martin February 23, 2025 at 10:01 AM Hello Rose, it's been too long since I've visited your poetry and so very glad to come by today. This is a poem of both sadness and celebration of what I assume is a life well-lived on the cusp of passing. Eloquent and insightful imagery. /// Kindest Kudos Rose

As long as we have a compassionate God by our side, even on the death bed, we won't experience any pain. We all wait for the moment for God to hold our hand in our journey through death to eternity. Beautifully written couplets, dear Rose. Mystic Rose Rose February 7, 2025 at 5:17 AM You are so right my friend, as long as we have God we should not fear death. Have a wonderful day dear :)
