A lovely poem and a wonderful way to show your compassion to a fellow rider in front. I had said it. And I will say again that I hope peace will be with them. You've done a fine job with this calm and it's a great submission. I see no issues with aesthetics or subject matter it's great job. That's the pluck I hope you have a great evening!

A gorgeous verse with an uplifting message. The meter flows smoothly and the rhymes are well-chosen. I love the positivity of faith that you share. Sandra cannot help but look at the stars and smile after reading this.

Robert, this is a moving tribute to Sandra's brother. I love the way you compare his life and death to the stars. They were ever a big part of mankind's heritage, and now you've tagged him into a constellation.

Love the part about the lamp posts of Heaven's pearly gates. Great reference, and it just plain sounds cool!

Take care, my friend,
Rhonda

I know this is a more personal piece written for someone specific, but even reading it without context, it is beautifully written. The dedication of naming it Ian's Constellation is also very sweet and fitting.

Incredibly moving, Robert.
Your message is heartfelt and beautifully rendered.
I've yet to experience the loss of a sibling, but I certainly have experienced the loss of many loved ones.
The following stanza resonated deeply with me:
He's joined a constellation
Of beams that shine each night,
A lantern for the journey
That guides us to the height.

Sending Sandra strength at this very sad time...

Much appreciated.
