...................little sister.....is gone....................



little sister
little sister be gone
my prayer every day

not that you are gone from me
i cry beg and plee
i think of you with me
and fallto my kneees
hoping someone will
hear my plee
' big sisters go first'...

that  why i will always
watch you as you sleep...
