My Sister, My Friend
Jacqueline Campbell 1960 (Staunton VA)
Oh, sweet sister
Words cannot say,
How much I love you
On this, your day!
From crayons to candles,
Herbs, oils and stones,
So many memories,
To call our own.
You are my “Good Morning Sister”
To help start my day,
To make me laugh,
In your own special way.
No matter the storms,
That we have weathered,
You are the strength and grace
And the glue that has held us together.
Wishing you a day,
That is as beautiful as you,
And a year of wishes
That will all come true!
Jackie
