My Beautiful Sister

On the day she was born The sun shined so brightly across the horizon A vivid colorful rainbow stretched across the sky When my sister took her first breath The birds outside chirped so joyfully Years progressed She found love Married had two children Her family was her whole entire life At family gatherings My sister's hearty laugh can be heard at a distance Her love of laughter showed It illuminated inside her Her laughter was contagious Her smile melted everyone's heart On a cold December's winters day My sister lost her beloved husband Suddenly.. It was a shock to her system She remained frozen In the mourning process When the love of her life died A part of her died along with him Her health started to fail Her grieving was ultimately unbearable Broken hearted Cancer had strickened my sister Was too late Cancer had spread On a crisp, cool, autumn night My Beautiful sister departed this physical world At the time of her departure There was a massive glow A glow of Brilliance All surrounds My sister entered a doorway The doorway to her beloved..

Robertina, I was completely captivated by your poignant and loving reminisce of your beloved sister. The delicate emotional balance, from the first half to the second half of your poem, shifted smoothly under the artistic care of your capable poetic pen. A beautiful write my friend.. Warmest wishes ~Susan

Hi Robertina, this is such a wonderful story of your sister. Love seems to be the string through her life. Love shone at her birth, love shone through her life and in the end love shone as she once more met her love. Beauty within the emotions and words. This write has to go into my faves. Have a wonderful Thursday. Hugs....Mike. XX
