Today I walked down memory lane to days of that, Our youth
I walked through our childhood and boy, was that a hoot
Our many shows and dances, our secrets never told
Continued on this trip today into our teens...
This poem instantly sent me to tears. The poem sends me to a place I try to often forget. A month ago, even though she was not my sister, she was a very close friend. She meant a heck of a...

Analysis of Form and Technique
If only I knew that our time would be so brief,
Spoiled you rotten I would have done.
If only I knew that would be our last phone call,
May 2, 2016 I lost my little sister who was only 45. Every day brings the challenge to go forward.

He sends them to earth for a family to love.
One cool crisp morning he sent twins.
The family burst with love from within.

Often, when it's late at night
And no one's 'round but me,
My mind will travel back in time

your smiles and chatter, the words you did say.
The coffees and catch-ups, the time that we shared,
busy lives lived close together, showed just how much we cared....

I am just a girl who misses her sister.
I wonder if she's missing me too.
I hear the wind when everything else is silent.
I see the horizon when I stare straight ahead.
One day it happened
In a blink of an eye
So sadly her life ended
Without a chance to say goodbye...
I just read your story and wanted to say" Im sorry for your loss and admire your strength."
It feels like years but it has only been months,
And yet that is still too long.
I still love you the same as if you were still here with me, laughing during the good times and crying during the bad ones.
I miss being able to call you any time and spend hours talking about everything under the sun.
