Once upon a time; oh sister mine,...................... Together we stood, in then, our sibling-line...........Huddled together your arms around me, together as sisters, the way it should be. ........................ Brothers are brothers for life you see, but you are my sister; the other half of me. ........................ Now, your home is yonder, leaving me to ponder; is my half of our heart still living in thee?....................... I love you so dearly, and wish you were near me;......................... God Bless you my SISTER, for HE knows how I miss you. Forever more in peace, Joanna, your Sister!~

I too have sisters. Four to be exact, and though once they were my everything,my world, sadly they have become a christmas card once a year. Never take your siblilings for granit,always remember to say I love you, for tommorrow is not promised.Paul Traudt 08 Nov 2007
