Remembering My Sisters on Mother's Day

We Miss You Dearly;

......You had the gift of happiness,

The unrelenting grace

To see the radiance of life

Within the ruthless face.
Cancer, heart attacks, and strokes,

Paralysis and pain,

A flood that left you penniless

. . .And still you smiled again.
It wasn't pure naivete

Or something just not there,

Or, even worse, an inner lie

That said you didn't care.
It was a certain blessedness

Attained by very fewT

hat let you live within a love

Within the love in you.
