This is dedicated to my dear sister Barbara, who died of cancer.
And also to my other five sisters:Janet,JoAnn,Pat,Ellie and Carol, and also my three brothers, who I also love dearly: Ronnie, Arnold, and Randy.


I miss the feeling of being young
I feel I'm stepping away
From our deep inner minds and bodies
Playing in dreams of sunshine
I miss the laughter
Of running in hand in hand
I miss the dreams of life
The pleasures of hope we shared
I live by memories
Of such love and feelings
We have so many stories
I believe I'm lost
The mistakes we made
Are far and between
The height of much desire in our souls
All of in mind and spirit
I'll share this to all
If only they can hear your heart
Beating in mine
Let me hear the thoughts from your mind
Come and share it all
The heart and soul of a sisters call
My life I shared
From young to old
Don't take my thoughts from your mind
But dear sister
Let us become closer heart and soul
Sisters are meant for life
To love and bring delight
And now dear sisters
We are older and wiser
Let's share our past
With faith and laughter
The kid within me, past and now
Memories come to me somehow
My prayers are with you
From then and now
So God be with you through it all
