Sisters on A Step

Missing image
Together on the step
in summertime style
sisters in t-straps
and crackerjack smiles.

    Chills all over!

    when my sister Marge was pregnant with her second child (her first was a girl) she hoped for another girl so her daughter could have a sister like were to each other. I know the treasured love of a sister . My many condolences to you on your loss!
    Best wishes,
    Jennifer

      Oh, my Jennifer;
      You've shared a memory with me that confirms
      why I can write things like this. I'm so glad
      that the Lord had His hand in your book of
      requests where sisters are concerned. I suppose
      we don't realize it till it happens.
      Thank you for your many reads and comments,
      and for your thoughtful condolence. I miss
      her so much.

      Warmly, CookieZ/D

    These are the memories
    that make up who we were,
    and will forever stay
    within my heart and soul...

    That is how I feel about this poem. You touched a moment and conveyed the emotions perfectly. ~ Joyce

    Priceless

    Cookie, This is really priceless the memories the poem of course so filled with love and it says so much because your heart shines through it. I am sorry about Cheryl. But no words can bring her back or ease I am sure the pain you must be feeling or your familys feelings. How do you keep from not loosing your mind right now knowing shes with the Lord I am sure. Your family and children all must be a strength to you and each other right now. Her children must be so torn and all of you shes not suffering now. But it was hard enough I am sure when you lost your daddy now your sister and you seem to hold yourself together rather well through it. You need some real time hugs!!! You do and I am sorry we are a state apart I love U.
