Comment from robyn corum
GB,
What a beautiful poem -- filled with a heartbreakingly sweet and comforting message of love and hope. I really enjoyed it and I'm sure that your sister would be sooo pleased. *smile* I am truly sorry for your loss. Sounds like she was an extra special blessing in your life.
One TINY note...?
1.) Forever in Heaven she will be,
--> here the scansion seemed off. The 'forever' in the opening makes me stumble and lose the rhythm. If you could smooth that out the poem would be even better!
--> And now in heaven she will be. (?)
2.) If you DID take my suggestion, that would make two of your lines start with 'and' - not so good. For the second line in that stanza, consider 'they'...?
Thanks for your kindness in listening to my thoughts. Happy week!

Comment from Andrewfo
A beautifully rhyming poem, using the aabb form with good alliteration and meter, this is touched with pathos and deep emotion - and yet with a hope that shines through it with faith for the future of Eternity.

Comment from dragonpoet
Nice flow to this poem about death and how one should not be afraid to die because life after death is much happier. Though we do miss them on Earth.
Keep writing

Comment from Emeka13
Nothing g is more therapeutic than when you write for or about a loved one who has departed. Your strong feeling come our clearly. Above all, you are confident that she is in heaven:
'Angels sing and hold her hand
And bring her to the promised land'.
The end is very serene. Love it.
May the good Lord continue to comfort you on the loss.
Thank you
Remain blessed.

Comment from Jean Lutz
Wish I had a six star rating left for this -- both words and picture work together in peaceful harmony to speak of the crossing. Weep for awhile and then lift your eyes heavenward where you will see her in a better life. I am a cancer survivor. Not really sure why I survived, but it does help one see life differently.
