For Lisa By Amy M. Kennedy You turn to me and say "Sis do I look alright"? I have to for a moment, look away Tears stream down my face, my voice goes all tight You wipe a tear away and say please don't cry I just stand there and look you, letting out a sigh You look so beautiful...how can my eyes stay dry? Prom... I hope for you sweetheart this is the perfect night Hard to believe 18 years ago Our sisterhood first got its start Where does all the time go? Since day one you captured my heart Feel more like your mom at this moment Dear sister of mine, beautiful friend...wonderful poet From the moment I saw you, my soul you did touch Just wanted you to know...I love you so much So proud of you, I know that Mom is too You look at me, and I look at your sweet face Remember Mom is watching and oh how she loves you Lisa...you have a beautiful heart and soul full of such grace I have had the honor of being your big sis Times have been tough, this we both know And at this exact moment, I make a wish A night full of magic and sweet eternal bliss You deserve it all and so much more You turn to me and wave Good things for you, I know are in store I flash a picture, this moment I wish I could save ~Live today as though it were your last but prepare for tomorrow as though it were here~ |

What a beautiful tribute to your sister, Amy. I am sure it did not go unappreciated. Elizabeth "He have his goodness now. God forbid I take it from him!" -The Crucible |

Amy~ I'd say that Lisa is very lucky to have such a loving, caring 'big sister'. You're an exceptional young woman, Amy. *Hugs* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |
