Our angel has wings now,

Cindy, fly high with the angels. I love you.

I just don't have anything else to say now, just wanted to let y'all know Cindy has passed.

:-(

May angels lead her in.

<3

Sending all my light and my love to her loved ones.

Cindy - rest peacefully at last with your husband and take all of our love with you.

For Cindy

Away
James Whitcomb Riley, American poet (1849 - 1916)

I cannot say and I will not say
That she is dead, she is just away.
With a cheery smile and a wave of hand
She has wandered into an unknown land;
And left us dreaming how very fair
Its needs must be, since she lingers there.
And you-oh you, who the wildest yearn
From the old-time step and the glad return-
Think of her faring on, as dear
In the love of there, as the love of here
Think of her still the same way, I say;
She is not dead, she is just away.

:'(

I can't help but smile knowing she is in no pain, and reunited with her sweetheart.

:(

When she gets to where she is going she will be in a better place

" You would know the secret of death.
But how shall you find it unless you seek it in the heart of life?
The owl whose night-bound eyes are blind unto the day cannot unveil the mystery of light.
If you would indeed behold the spirit of death, open your heart wide unto the body of life.
For life and death are one, even as the river and the sea are one.
In the depth of your hopes and desires lies your silent knowledge of the beyond;
And like seeds dreaming beneath the snow your heart dreams of spring.
Trust the dreams, for in them is hidden the gate to eternity.
Your fear of death is but the trembling of the shepherd when he stands before the king whose hand is to be laid upon him in honour.
Is the sheered not joyful beneath his trembling, that he shall wear the mark of the king?
Yet is he not more mindful of his trembling?
For what is it to die but to stand naked in the wind and to melt into the sun?
And what is to cease breathing, but to free the breath from its restless tides, that it may rise and expand and seek God unencumbered?
Only when you drink form the river of silence shall you indeed sing.
And when you have reached the mountain top, then you shall begin to climb.
And when the earth shall claim your limbs, then shall you truly dance." Gibran

Michael, that is truly fitting. Absolutely beautiful.

May her soul rest in peace...eternal peace...

... not to thine eternal resting-place
Shalt thou retire alone, nor couldst thou wish
Couch more magnificent. Thou shalt lie down
With patriarchs of the infant world--with kings,
The powerful of the earth--the wise, the good,
Fair forms, and hoary seers of ages past,
All in one mighty sepulchre. ...

from Thanatopsis by William Cullen Bryant

I know I've been in the shadows with talk of Cindy, but I sincerely hope she's better off now than she was. Though by the looks of it, being missed isn't even scratching the surface of the hole she's left in this site's heart...

This is sad news.

I didn't know Cindy, but from reading the posts, I know a lot of people loved her. I am sorry for her lost. I am sure she is flying with the angels now.

Big big shame, I spoke to her a few times.

Life is short and very precious.

Cindy was a wonderful person and such a dedicated member to PnQ. My heart goes out to her family, friends and anyone who loved her. I'm going to spend some time today reading through her poetry, I think that it's the best way to honour her.

May angels lead her into Paradise <3

Cindy my dear, rest in peace...

The tide rises, the tide falls
The tide rises, the tide falls, The twilight darkens, the curlew calls;
Along the sea-sands damp and brown The traveller hastens toward the town, And the tide rises, the tide falls.
Darkness settles on roofs and walls, But the sea, the sea in the darkness calls;
The little waves, with their soft, white hands, Efface the footprints in the sands, And the tide rises, the tide falls.
The morning breaks; the steeds in their stalls Stamp and neigh, as the hostler calls;
The day returns, but nevermore Returns the traveller to the shore, And the tide rises, the tide falls.

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Thank you all... Cindy's beautiful poetry friends... You made her life brighter and each of your friendships touched her heart... She loved this poetry site and her club...she is finally at peace

May she rest in peace.

My condolences to her loved ones, may she rest in peace.

I'm very sorry for those who loved her and have lost her. There is some small relief in that she is no longer suffering. If there's a heaven, she's in her husband's arms and smiling down on us. I'm immensely grateful Cindy found a home on PnQ and touched so many hearts. She was a kind, compassionate woman, who will live on in all of us.

Rest in peace, Cindy.
