Are You There?
Often, when it's late at night
And no one's 'round but me,
My mind will travel back in time
To my sister's memory.

I am enjoying all your poetry - keep it up. I am a fellow scribbler in retirement...
Best wishes,

God picks flowers from his garden above.
He sends them to earth for a family to love.
One cool crisp morning he sent twins.
The family burst with love from within.
My fraternal twin sister Stacey died recently on April 11, 2020, of septic shock and pulmonary edema. I believe is what they called it. She had her organs shut down, a lot of clots in her...
As I was not there the day of your birth,
I rely on stories to tell of your worth.
A few years pass, and a miracle once more
Our family, growing again, has now reached four....
My sister had illnesses all her life from eye troubles. Graves' disease , psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. She lived in spite of it all. You never really knew how sick she was. She liked...

I watch him as he falls to the ground
He heart is breaking with out a sound,
What do I do what do I say,
I may never know on this tragic day....
Little Megan went to heaven and a tear fell from my eye,
But now my little sister is swinging from cloud to cloud in the sky.
I lost a sister that I love like the sun rays love the land,
When you meet a new friend
there is a feeling like it will never end
she's not just someone, she is my sister
her face full of blotches, diseases with blisters....
Hey...It's ok don't worry at least you know she is in a better place now I don't really know you but I can tell what you are going through is hard we will get through this together I know you...

One morning under a clear blue sky day,
There was a crisp November chill in the air,
As the sun shone down in a brilliant golden ray,
Upon all the sweet flowers and people gathered there....
My sister Penny passed away February 23, 2017. Today marks 2 months that she has been gone. I still have trouble believing that such a vibrant, beautiful, funny, intelligent, caring, and...
Although you were old and I was young, I still remember the laughter and fun. You were always there when I was down, trying to cheer me up like a silly clown. When ever I had a problem, I could go to you to talk. You'd console me and take me for a walk.
Why did you leave and die. Everytime I think of you I sigh, but on the inside I desperately cry. Mother still cries at the sound of your name. I still remember the good times and all the games. I know you are in heaven and you are watching over me. You'll never come back to me no matter how much I plead. I loved you and you loved me, but I guess if you love something you have to set it free. Though you always fought with my other sister, you'd get over it, and always kissed her.

She was my baby, fragile and small.
She was beautiful, like a little girl's doll.
She was older than I, but so quiet and weak,
And when I heard to dire news, I wept
That was a very sad poem. Yes, losing a sibling can be difficult. I just lost my sister last month, the first out of five to leave. It can be rough, but we know God is with us to help us...
I had prayed to God
Give her this month,
A little more time
That's all I ask...
