Sister Poem

God brought us together as sisters, so we can share our hopes and dreams.

To share our laughter and our tears. Sometimes to get mad and even fight.

To hold each other up when we are down.

Together the bond we have will remain strong.

Peanut you will always

remain in our hearts.

We are grateful to God for giving you to us.

I was just thinking about Peanut the other day, how we used to go bike riding together when we were teens. I think of her often because we were so cool. She was a dear friend of mine. I remember when her son was born. He was her joy. Just reminiscing good times with my homegirl.
