                   "Sierra"


the wind blowing gently across the trees,
a soft gentle song, as fresh as the breeze.

a down feather pillow that i lie my head upon,
waking up refreshed in the early dawn.

a yellow rose first blooming,
you are my first true love for life,
or so im assuming.

an array of pastel colors spread all about,
makes me think of you, without a doubt.

when the warm sun comes and shines down on me,
i know its you saying"find peace".

My Dearest Sister,

Whenever I think of that day it still brings tears to my eyes.  I am just thankful I could be there for you.  This writing truely envokes a feeling of comfortable sadness.

Love you madly,
Euwy
