Nancy Ann Pierce
On April 11, 2023, my only sister exited this world to enter a world free of the hardships and frailties that plagued her for so long. Only two days ago, I remember looking into her eyes and asking her just how she was feeling, and she simply responded with “I’m finally at peace in my life.” I’ve often wondered why some people must endure such difficulties and struggles in life, only to enjoy such precious moments of peace and clarity. Not long ago, I composed several lines; I didn’t know it at the time, but these words I reserve for my sister… my brilliant blue sky.

“Enveloping a landscape filled with imperfections, a brilliant blue sky touches ever so gently, caressing with adoration its love of life itself. Plagued by stormy tempests and divisive rumblings, the brilliant blue sky works with undaunting patience to return to the magnificence of a clear, uninhibited day. For the perfection of a brilliant blue sky effaces the unquestionably withering effects of ominous clouds and seemingly torrents of pain.”
