She gave to me laughter in midst of her pain. Shared us her moments again and again. Good front she was wearing, though colored in red. Undressed, she, before us her scars raised in dread. Her frown holding in the aching of know. Releasing the hidden of thoughts once in stow. Today was a day that would finally be the pledging of sisters for one to set free. So we laughed at the small things until there were tears. My mother and sister and I, living fears. Not much more to be done, only days to endure, to savor new memories come next moments more. She will fight till the end and do it with flair. My sister, the eldest in this family affair. M "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less." |

I love poems that shoot straight from the heart to my eyes...this is one of that kind.. Honest emotions stressed, as they must sometimes, even the sad ones, yet in this sad poem is the essence of love...deep and familial, one of the strongest of kinds. Peace to you, and all that you love... Very nice poem_________ice ><> |

I have a dear friend, Maureen, who may meet your sister very soon. Or greet her. I do know...and my prayers are with you all. I am glad to know, that there is some laughter among the tears. As it should be... |
