A SISTER'S SUPPORT
A SISTER'S SUPPORT I reach out and your hand is there for me to grasp. We need to cling together now, to share the winter winds and warming rays, a steaming cup, our children's play, a laugh, a tear, a hand pressed in understanding, a kindred, soggy shoulder when life is just too hard to understand, a voice on the phone when the night jitters grab, a hug when the ache for that comforting pressure is overwhelming, and someone to hug in return to sustain and uphold. I reach, as for a sister, and you are there. B. V. Dahlen ©
Dang it Bea (crying). This is all so hard. I would like to print this to give to my sister if you don't mind. With Gods grace she will make it through this whole mess alive and in one peice (both physically and mentally). She has yet to ship out but the days are going by so slow waiting for what we know is bound to happen. I go to sleep thanking God she was home one more day and I wake up praying I won't get the call that she is leaving.
