Written for Kim-
“SISTER O SISTER”
Sister o Sister
I know each thought you think
Sister o Sister
I taste the salt that you drink
Together we share the blood of our mother
Two sisters, one love
For her, no other
Do you feel we have drifted?
Two ships lost out at sea
No anchor now holds us
We both sail aimlessly
Sister o Sister
Let’s not float further apart
Know that I need you
I speak from my heart
We cannot discard all we were taught
Such wisdom and much love
Are gifts given, not bought
I too feel frightened
What rules come with ‘grief?’
Simply follow your heart
That is my true belief
Sister o Sister
Mum was brave to the end
Her murmurs kept silent
So broken hearts would mend
Sister o Sister
Let us never lose touch
Sister o Sister
We owe her that much!
For my sister, Kim…
