Our lives have taken many roads,some good,some bad. We have learned the ways of the world,sometimes together,sometimes apart,but never really apart because....You are my Sister: Sometimes miles stretch between us,holding us like chains from one another.But not our hearts,for they are entwined,much like the cord of life from our Mother's womb,wrapped around your soul and mine forever........You are My Sister: Many people share our lives. There have been friends,lovers,children,they come and go much like revolving doors.We've shared many of life's moments with each one.But nothing to compare with what we've shared.We have shared the very space in which our lives began,and so much more......... You are my Sister: We've shared floors where our first steps were taken ,fears.where our first tears were cried,coos and babbling childhood laughter. When all around us seemed so frightening and unsafe,we tried to keep each other safe because....You are my Sister: So even though I'm not within your reach,know this. When your heart tugs,wondering if I care,my heart feels that tug. Even when I pass beyond this life,the bond will still remain. The spirit never dies. It shall remain entwined within our hearts....... You are my Sister: -Bobby Smith Copyright:1996 (3rd collection) |
