SISTER, SISTER

Sitting on the back deck doing very little

We talk of days gone by and those ahead,

Smiles in the remembering of blessed moments shared,

I took for granted all, now I cry alone instead.

I dearly loved my sister,

Her smile, her laugh, her warmth,

My life is stuck in limbo now,

Dear God, please give me strength

To face this life without her,

To once again feel whole,

Have mercy on this grieving heart

And mend this mourning soul.
