My Angels

She’s Susan’s younger sister Karen is her name. Although I don’t see her much I love them both the same. Karen is an Army wife That’s why she’s not around. She’s stationed many miles away In a U.S. Army compound. She’s the mother of four grandkids And I sure love all four. I wish they lived much closer So I could enjoy them more. Karen has a handicap A physical one - in fact But I won’t go into it Cause it doesn’t hold her back! I know if she lived close by There’s no doubt in my mind That if I really needed her She would not be hard to find. However - distance won’t allow And that’s the way I see it. Physically Karen can’t be there But she’ll be there in spirit! Both girls are angels in my eyes On that I will stand firm. But there is just one difference And that I will affirm. The difference is that Sue’s nearby And Karen’s far away. But I love them both with all my heart That all that I can say! :
