Her life was a grand story
Filled with triumphs and tragedy
Courageous to the bone
Our very own morning glory
A dear and close friend
Forever she will always be
In my heart she remains
Oh how can we ever mend
The Cancer spread with a vengeful force
Secretly known by a few
Consuming her fragile body
Towards an unimaginable course
She was beautiful, gracious and kind
Helping friends overcome hurdles
Putting others before herself
A rare and precious find
She soared like a graceful dove
Touching all she came upon
Meeting her soul mate at 16
The one she was meant to love
She molded courage to a tee
With every breath she took
Not complaining in the least bit
The strongest person all could see
She fought with all she had
Loving life continuously
Not giving in to death
Never succumbing to feeling sad
Her life was a spectacular dream
Ending abruptly too soon
Leaving us loving memories and dreams
Floating like an angelic beam
An angel in disguise
Rachel’s spirit shall live on
Teaching us lifelong lessons
Making us all stronger and wise
