This is written for my husband's cousin and her daughter who died suddenly three years ago three months apart. With a note of thanks for all the help I received on this from you kind folks here. And a note of thanks to WhtDove for her challenge a while back! (I made a lot of changes and wanted to post it in this forum, hope that's ok?)

This is dedicated in loving memory of Patty and Jaime

Since lifted high on angel wings
Of gossamer and lace
I've seen so many wondrous things
And seen Him face to face.

Enraptured by the King of Kings
Wrapped up in His embrace
My soul eternally it sings
Of His amazing grace.

When you arrive and see the King
The beauty in His face
You'll find the end of suffering
All pain He will erase.

When lifted high on angel wings
Of gossamer and lace
You'll see so many splendor'd things
And wonders of His grace.

Once reunited in this place
Of lacy angel wings
We'll be together by His grace
As all of heaven sings.

I loved this each time I read it Denise...
I'm sure Jaime and Patty are singing songs
in Heaven for your dedication.

Denise this is lovely.  I just found it.  It came at an anniversary of the loss of my young husband at 41.  He died on the 4th of July.  Not in an accident as so many do.  But he just died unexpectedly.  Your poetry soothes.  Love, Joyce
