God and family no greater love than these!
My sister Sandy emulates love!
What a sister to behold,
blessing the Jones's,
strengthening the fold!
She played with her siblings,
Michael, Chappie, Toni, and Earl,
dodge ball kick ball danced and twirled.
She turned and threw the baton,
kicked her legs real high,
a majorette reaching for the sky!
And so many years later,
her children are grown,
blest in the family,
they help to keep strong!
Sandy loves her children,
much wider than any sea,
Gina, Chandreika, Acqi,
help her beam bright,
like stars of night!
Sharing her birthday with,
Rev. Dr. Martin L. King,
celebrate and legislate truth,
only thing will you live his dream
Today Sandy's the reigning queen!
You can't discourage her,
Cassandra knows God is on her side,
no matter how the battles rages,
God alone can change the tide!
So happy you reached this milestone,
78 years many smiles few tears.
Our world is a better place,
Sandy because you are here,
thanks for showing God is alive,
my sister whom I love so dear!
This is the kind of poem I love, Michael--full of love and admiration for your sister. She sounds like a wonderful sister and mother. When you have one so precious, there's more love to share every year.
