Comment from Liz O'Neill
This is a very poignant poem. It does leave the reader with hope which not all poems can do. It's good to be back in the light again I usually expression that they have in the Army I guess when I go to my brother's I have to go dark there's no internet. I do bring my Kindle so I have something to do. Once in a while I get to interview my brother for the next chapter.

Thank you so much, Liz! And I hope you have a great visit with your brother. I don't do much on Facebook so my replies there will be slow. I hope you have lots of good reviews when you get back.
Hugs!

We've hired these ladies that come in twice a week to visit him and clean things up and it's working good. They're basically me. I can stay home.

What a beautiful poem for Nomi and Yvonne. This is the second one I read for them. You always have the best prayers. I like the meaning of Yvonne's name. I'm sure Nomi appreciates all the poems in their honor.
Well done, sister ��

Thank you so much, MariVal. We were most shocked at the suddenness of her passing.

My aunt got pancreatic cancer and died very fast. It can be a blessing in disguise if you you get terminal cancer.

That's sad. But at least she got to say goodbye. Nomi didn't think anything was wrong when he went to bed.

How scary, poor Nomi

Comment from Ric Myworld
I'm so sorry about Yvonne's passing, and Nomi's heartbreaking loss. Never knowing quite what to say or do, I'm never good in these situations, but it's nice there are those like you who can offer aiding words of comfort. A good Christian believer, Nomi can take solace in God's word. He and Yvonne will know each other as here on earth and be together again soon. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks so much, Ric. I'm terrible with writing Sympathy cards. At least, here we can write each other poems.
Hugs!

Hello Helen, your poem of prayer and comfort is beautifully penned with soft and soulful words. Of special note:
Although in earthly form she's gone
His gift of grace, his sweet Yvonne*
Is shining bright on Heaven's beach
(Wonderful reflective imagery)
Great photo choice. A pleasure to read. I know that your poem will bring comfort to Nomi. May Yvonne rest in eternal peace. Amen.
Well done. I wish that I had a Sixer for this one. Xo. M

Thanks so much, Jake! I'll look for your poem, too. I know you have a great marriage so we all can relate to missing our loved one if the Lord calls them home suddenly.
Blessings!

Oh Helen,
This poem is precious!! It is so well written and flows effortlessly. The message is comforting. Although we know he knows where she is and that she'll never stop loving him, it helps to be reminded, especially in such a caring way.
Hugs,
Rhonda

It is a sad time for Nomi, but the beautiful poems I have read supporting him in his grief, will be a comfort to him, I'm sure. It takes time and lots of tears to accept WE into ME. Nicely written Helen.

I really struggle to write poems about people I know. You wrote a beautiful poem for Nomi. I hope all these poems are a comfort to him. While it's about a sad topic, this poem is full of beauty and hope.

Appreciate your super review and generous stars!
