Farewell
I search for you
in your cemetery home.
I remember God's Word,
dear brother.
"Death has no victory;
the grave has no sting."
We will be together again,
presently, in eternity
because we love.
We love and love and love;
into all eternity we love.

Post a CommentThank God for that blessed hope
Very nice, death is hardest on those of us left behind imo. My daddy just died last week.
Lovely tribute.
This is very nice.
Very nice, I just lost my grandmother, so I can certainly appreciate this very much in this difficult time.
Great tribute!
What a loving tribute...
I am glad to have a wonderful, Christian writer, and "Vietnam Vet" as a reader and new Friend in Jesus. Alelujah!
Your short poem mentions love many times, and yet it hits home, heart and head all at once because of your sincere, heartfelt living. Thank you Shirley. Shalom from Neil Deo/DEONILS
P.S. In LOVE - agape love of the Creator - your brother lives even now and you shall meet him in Eternity. In His name, Amen!
That was a nice use of repetition to convey how love continues.
What a beautiful and touching piece! Nice work!
