Swirling Sisterly Memories
~*Marge Tindal*~

~*~
Sisterly
memories swirl
Twirling you upon
the heartstrings
of my heart
Dancing
memories of when
you were here within
my reach and we laughed
Fond embrace of happy times
Missing precious moments of your
laughter, the trinkets in a box, the
letters with one page and that darned
always extra line before you figured out
that you'd said all there was to say then
tucked it in an envelope to post it to me
Treasured now they are,the extra lines
a birthday reminder of the smiles you
left me to find on days such as this
Happy Birthday, sister Shari~
I miss you so much


*In memory of Shari Cowart Ricker
March 8, 1944 - October 7, 1999

**Reposting because I am surrounded by her memories**

Dear Marge:

This sounded such a responsive chord in me, as I have been thinking about my sister Patty, all morning. She died on March 10, 1992.  She was 51. Wonderful poem of remembering!

Love

your relationship with your sister is one to be admired..

the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost

Marge, I have read a few of your other poems about Shari, and I don't remember if I have seen this one in the past. But after reading it, I feel that I have gotten to know Shari a little bit through your memories of her. You made her seem so real.

God bless you!

Marge, this is just incredbly loving.  I am amazed at your ability to create form poetry like this one is... so perfect and it swirls with color as well as heartfelt remembrances.  I am sorry your sister has passed.  What caught my eye about your tributes was her name--Shari.  It is also my daughter's name.  

I wish you peace on a spirit level and memories without grief.  

Husgs and love,
Karen

Friends~
I thank each of you for your kind replies~
Shari is missed in so many ways ... by sisters, brother and four children~

It's sometimes difficult to imagine our days without her here ... yet we know she left some wonderful memories that give us smiles-of-tender-remember~

May the God-of-your-knowing bless you all for being so kind to me~
