Sisters Love

Mona Strother Rhame 1953 (Louisiana)

February 22 
Free verse
My sister died
Tears running down my face
I think of the things we did together
Tears running down my face
I see your smiling face
Tears running down my face
I can't call you now
Tears running down my face
My heart breaks with every breath I take
Tears running down my face
I can't sleep
Tears running down my face
All my Love, your little sister.

About this poem

I dedicated this to my sister Linda Gordon a couple of days after she passed away. I didn't get to attend the funeral and it was hitting me hard that I couldn't talk to her anymore. Setting on the side of my bed crying my eyes out this is what come out.
