Tribute to my sister

20.MAY.11

To a sister so loving, so caring and true,
To my dear sister this one if from me to you.
As we have grown up through our childhood years,
The fun and laughter I can always chase,
The things we’ve done created memories forever,
And kept us strong even when we couldn’t be together.

You were always there to lend a listening ear,
And have always shown how much you care,
Often times I think of you more like a mother,
So my dear sister I wouldn’t trade you for another.

I remember the day you left for a foreign land,
To see you again was all in our plan,
I cried all night how I was missing you,
Then I know you had just wanted to start life anew.

You have tried your best to make us happy,
Though after times your face I’d longed to see,
From your life I’ve learnt to be a better me,
So loving and kindhearted that’s how you will always be.

And even now when I think of you,
It breaks my heart how I’m missing you,
And it’s in those silent moments when my hearts pain,
Memories of you my dear sister are all that remain.

Sometimes I wished I could see your face, To hear your laughter would mean so much, How often it happens within my dreams,

And each time I’m awake I always wish it was real. With no final words of farewell,

You have left my life, Silent tears I’ve cried asking myself why, Your sudden passing,

I still cannot understand,
But what can I do my dear sister?
It’s all God’s plan.
Sometimes I get so sad when I’m missing you,
How my heart aches no one will ever know,
To lose a loved one so true and kind,
I’m so glad I’m your sister and you are mine.

I’ve prayed someday we will meet again,
Where the pastures are green,
And there will be no pain, No sorrow of heart,
Only joy and laughter,
What a day that would be to see you again my dear sister.

Rest in perfect peace.

To my sister Joycelyn. Gone but not forgotten

Love always Gracelyn.
