Danielle N. Calhoun: Sisters and Friends

SISTERS AND FRIENDS

She came to me on silver wings as I closed my eyes to dream,
She took me from this place in the dark and took me high above the stars,
We reached the sky and the heavens above where I felt safe from harm,
We touched down on a field in the clouds where the trees and things abound,
A forest of light and devoid of dark a fire flickered on a mountaintop,
We reached its peak and there she stood an angel in white, but who,
She took me in her arms and said this is where I've gone my friend,
High above the stars and sky where we took our moonlight ride,
You came to me in my time of need I stay with you even as you grieve,
I love you just as much as before, please don't cry for me anymore,
I'm happy now and pain is gone, but my babies and my husband are alone,
How I wish I could have stayed for a time, but the gods needed me,
For me it was time, so do not weep for me anymore,
I'm home now, where I grieve no more, my parents here,
And warriors of the past, I'm here with them, safe at last,
Safe from harm and those who hurt me, tell everyone I love them,
Please don't cry for me, go home now, it's not your time,
Take the memories of you and I, do not weep but do not forget,
You and I will be together again, so I took to the sky,
On the steed did I ride, with her silver wings and her mane of gold,
She brought me back, and I am home, I'll do what she says,
I'll weep no more, but in my heart I'll never forget,
The love we shared as sisters and friends...
