As I observe the pictures of my life’s memories
My sister in so many…That adorn the walls of my home
Holding newly arrived nephews and a niece
All their graduations and visits here or there
She and I embracing near Lake Champlain
She and Elyssa in the sandbox playing with trucks
Her arms holding one of my newborn foals
The beauty of her wedding day
Now to her hospital room, I call once or twice daily
So sick she hasn’t answered for over a week
Finally, the second call today, her voice on the other end
An oasis in the desert of unanswered calls
How do I, so far from her
Convey the love, the hope and images of future memories
And that I carry her with me in my thoughts
As I teach, ride and go about life?
Does she know, that in my conversations with friends and family
She is ever present and ever loved?
Such a part of my life is she
Manifest in the pictures upon my walls…..
I must tell her, now that all my pictures are hung
That there is empty space on my walls waiting to be filled
Art sun...
(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Tx., Karen Lynn. :(
Hope your sister is doing better; she (and you) are in my prayers!
Karen, I do hope all is well, or at least, a little less worrisome! The love for her expressed here is overpowering and yes...there are still some more empty spaces on those walls to fill! In fervent prayer...
God Bless~
Love and Peace~

The warmth of a love such as yours does not go unnoticed ... I am certain she can feel it and hear it in your voice. The light in your heart shines bright in this poem.
Love & Light always and in all ways,

She is ever present and ever loved?
I think she truly does know, as do we.
Do not dwell on the fact that she is ill. Release this burden, send her a picture that will tell her how much you love and care about her. She may be needed of a reminder that she is loved and had a beautiful life.
Many prayers and blessings go out to you and your sister now, much
Peace, Love, and Light,
Amber "V"
You know you and your sister have our support and prayers
