Analysis of First Anniversary



Its your anniversary sis,
so I thought I would write you a poem,
To let you know, how we miss you so.
I still remember all the times we shared,
all the words of advice you gave me, through the years.
How you use to brighten the room with your smile.
how excited you got, like a child, when you showed me things.
I remember it all, as though it was yesterday.
But its been a year now,
since your death,
and everyday you are so missed.
So today I say happy anniversary to you.
I hope you can hear this poem I wrote for you,
For now its the only thing I can give to you.
and I hope know,
how much we love you so.
We love you sis, and we shall never forget you.
As long as we live you live on with us
here.
in our thoughts.
