Crossing Jordan

As angels hovered
They said goodbyes
Through the mist
Of Jordans chill
Shadow of cross
As time gave way 
They felt the urge to pray

They clung 
To her breast 
Stained with tears
Jordans waters
Filled her lungs
Stealing the breath
That once sustained
Leaving behind
A weary shell

Sweet presence lingered
But for a moment
As the glory 
Embraced her soul
There was no doubt
What ever the cost
Eternal life her prize
