Amanda

Missing image
Amanda ...
Meaning: worthy of love
Always giving always ready to nurture
Never pondering the pearl
Dislodged in the clasp between past and future
Afflicted by sacrifice

Author notes

My sister, Amanda, is as precious as her name indicates ... we all know it, but she.

    Amanda is a lovely name. Much better than Mandy, to which it is too often shortened. Nice tribute.
