Four Sisters Death Poem Remembrance Amid Winter Night
A four stanza poem recalls a sister dying on a winter night by a frozen brook. The speaker describes her resting like a sculpted saint under pale moonlight, eyelids closed, lips apart, arms crossed in marble repose. Upon dawn the family finds a smile, and Christmas bells bring solace as they believe she woke in heaven.
