For All The Times ~*Marge Tindal*~  For all the times you wrote those letters with a page and one line For all the cards you sent that are in this cedar chest of mine For all the pictures you shared for the trinkets in a sack I'd gladly give them all up just to have you back Sifting through the memories I pause time after time when glancing at a piece of you left within my mind I'm glad that I kept them nostalgic as I'm prone to be They will be here for all time of you they'll always remind me My heart is heavy-laden Walk in peace, sister dear I will see you again someday until then I hold your memory near *In loving birthday memory of my sister, Shari. Here too short - gone too long~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Marge, this is deeply touching. I am incredibly sorry for the loss of your sister...we seem to always be willing to give everything up to have the person back, don't we? Even one more day...beautiful, heartfelt words my dear friend, I'm sure that somewhere your sister is looking down and smiling.  *Krista Knutson* "Can't run fast enough Can't hide I can't fly I'm struggling with the limits of this ordinary life..." ~Tracy Chapman |

The love between you and your sister is evident and there is no doubt in my mind that she is proud of you and loves the beautiful poem you wrote in her memory ~*Peachy Be*~ |

This was a lovely tribute to your sister, and I am so glad to see that you have "trinkets" with which to celebrate her life. This is so important, to remember how they lived, and what it meant to you. I see she meant a lot, and I wish to extend a wee hug to you while you hold your memories dear. ~*~A poet is someone who reads more than they write ~*~ |
