The Girl in the Red Shirt with Black Slacks is an actual picture of my precious Vicki. It's not a great pic of her but one out of the two I have on my computer. The girl next to her isn't me, lol, but my friend Brit, unfortuately I don't have a pic of Vicki & I that I can put on my computer. The picture was taken four & a half months before she passed away....
Vicki, my precious sister and best friend of mine,
I know that you have reached that great divine,
Please come to me in my dreams as I sleep,
My love & memory of you I'll always keep,
Save a place for me up there when I die,
Each day is a struggle & most days I cry,
I smell your perfume, I know you're with me,
The grief is nothing like I thought it would be,
Heaven must be beautiful with you there,
Your laugh, your smile, just the way you care,
Is with me each day as I try to live for you,
Until the day comes when I'll be with you too.

The first few months after Jessie died, I dremt of her everynight. Me being with her, smiling, dancing, laughing...joking. It was great, until I woke up. I still dream of her, but not as much. I loved this poem, and she was so pretty. If you go to my list about Jessie, you'll see her picture.

Hey girl everytime I read that poem I always cry. It's so hard not having Vicki here with us. We will be up there in heaven with Vicki when we die and once again we will see her. Vicki is watching over all of her beloved friends who love her so dearly and so is Megan. Just for those who don't know... I am the girl in the pink shirt and blue capris... just ask sara. I just hope that everything is alright with your grandma and remember GOD loves you and so do I.
Love

Oh this is such a beautiful write. Damn my computer!! (its not allowing me to see pics or backgrounds
) I'm sure she really is as beautiful as you describe her to be - and is making Heaven a really special place. I sure she misses you so much too.
Lots of love

This is a very heart felt poem! From the picture i am guessing that she was a totally awesome person that was all out and friendly. I am really sorry that she passed away. But there will be a day when everyone will meet before the Lord in Heaven and the angels shall rejoice and there will be cries of joy and tears of laughter!
In Christ

Save a place for me up there when I die,
Each day is a struggle & most days I cry,
I smell your perfume, I know you're with me,
The grief is nothing like I thought it would be,
i guess i like those lines the best. they truly are incredible. i can feel how close you were to her. very nice this was a really good piece. -
Ohhhh wow this is so terribly sad. I'm so sorry. You have put your feelings into a beautiful poem. This is wonderful and I'm sure she thinks so too. Just remember she is in a wonderful place and she is still with you. Very sad and I hope you feel better with time. So sorry you have to go through pain like this.

This is such a BEAUTIFUL poem for Vicki. Before I go any furhter, I have to say that Vicki was a beautiful young woman. In this picture you can see that she was a wonderful, sweet person with a heart of gold. She will always be in your heart and I know that she is looking over you with such pride and love. You are making her happier and happier every day that you manage to go on. That is what she and all of your angels want for you. To go on and have a long, happy, full-filled life.
Much love to ya!!

I can only imagine. I almost lost my own sister to anorexia, and suicidal attempts. That scared me enough. I still fear waking up on a day when she is no longer there. Stone cold and dead, just like my mother. It scares me.
"I smell your perfume, I know you're with me,
The grief is nothing like I thought it would be"
what did you think grief would be like? worse? or better?
hey..you might end up getting a *ahem* 'long' e-mail from me this afternoon. just to let you know, but i'm not sure. depends on how i am when i get home ya know?
keeping you in my thoughts

Hi there
This is such a moving poem, I am touched by every single word...
I'm so sorry to hear you're beautiful sister has passed away...
I think it must be very difficult to handle, when you suddenly lose a person that's so close to your heart.
Can I ask you why she died? was it a disease or an accident? If you don't want to answer this, it's ok, but I'm just a bit curious...

that is so moving...and inspiring, with so much beauty..my mom used to tell me, that heaven is always open, and the people can always see and hear you, i guess it was to just make me feel better.but this is a great write.
