To see
you there it's like a prayer
My eyes
are fixed in gentle stare
There
among the stars so bright
You glow
in everlasting light
Heart on
fire with a zest
Memories
at my bequest
Smile
that lingers there to see
Filled
with gracious memories
There
within the star lit night
Glowing
dreams of all delight
Dancing
on a breeze we share
My heart
of hearts is always there
Tears of
joy and sadness too
For you
are with me all life through
Voices
speaking in a hush
Upon the
sky of velvet blush
Painted
in the grand design
Of how
our path was so aligned
Deep
within the depths of love
It is
your spirit I know of
For
anywhere that I shall go
You are
the joy of tender glow
That
fills the heart of my whole being
Remembering the love worth seeing
Moonlight shadows flood my soul
With so much beauty life now holds
Within the hours I shall keep
Are precious moments I repeat.

February 18th marks the third year of my
sister Lorraine's passing.
So many changes in my life since her
beauty left this earth and so
many desires that go unseen now in my
life. My sister was the portal
of my soul. The gentle and kind
embodiment of precious life worth
living. It is so hard for me to realize
her loss and each day as the
hours pass I always find a moment to call
out her name to
reaffirm her living on this earth.
I know that all those who have lost
someone precious in their lives
feel the same way too. My heart goes out
to you for this. There are
times when my heart is so sad and that's
when I reach back into my
treasure trove of memories to bring forth
her laughter, kindness
and love. That is the one thing that gets
me through this terrible loss.
Time they say goes on, and you know that
you must keep moving forward
and in the end the steps that have to be
made will be the ones
of great importance ~ the
footprints she lovingly left for me.
I shall always miss that twinkle in her
eye and her positive attitude
about life and how it was worth living.
What a blessing she was
to me and to many. In life we
all suffer through losses and what
we gain are little passages of time that
keep us looking toward a
new horizon and I time when we will share
our happiness again.
Thank you for taking the time to remember
my sister Lorraine
and I thank you for all the support
during her time of trial and
sorrow. You all are a great part of my
life and I want to let you
know that life will never be lonely
because of your tenderness
and caring. May God Bless you all.
Love Francine
