My Sister

Oh, how I miss, my sister, my friend, Our love, like the circle, has no end; Unshakable, unbreakable, authentic and true, Not ephemeral like blossoms and morn’s early dew; My mentor, my confidante, and my guide, Applauded my efforts and filled me with pride; There for me, no matter the hour, A precious gem, a beautiful flower; When I was down, she picked me up, When I was thirsty, she filled my cup; When I was sick, she never left my side, Whatever the need, my sister supplied; Her spiritual gifts were generosity and grace, She always had a smile on her beautiful face; She truly was an angel, sent from heaven above, To canvass the earth, and paint it in love; Oh, how I miss, my sister, my friend, Our love, like the circle, has no end; My love for her, will never depart, She lives on, forever, inside of my heart;
