| My Sister, My Friend I can remember her the way she was What she looked like the day she left us Growing up together, sisters Oh, how I miss her A baby to a toddler, then A seven year old with beauty outside and in A very bright girl Long blonde hair with a little curl Bright blue eyes And a brilliant smile Always loving with lots of friendships to hold dear Oh, how I wish that she was still here She and I were very close Always telling secrets, I loved her most I remember the things she said Talking at night, lying in bed Telling each other about our days Helping each other in sisterly ways Staying up late on Christmas night Getting up to peek with our little flashlight Putting on fashion shows And wearing each other's clothes Playing in the wintry snow or hot days of summer With her around it was always funner Wearing mom's long dresses and high heel shoes Dressing up was fun to do Especially when we had make-up, too She was like my best friend I wish we could do this stuff again I can't help but wonder what she would be like now Because I think what would she look like and how would she act, how? She would probably be good in school Everyone thinking she was cool I just want to see her face again My sister, my friend She is now in heaven above Looking down with lots of love Written with love by Lyndsi Nikolle Christopher |
