the source of her joy

Of all who have touched my heart,
girl, you touched it deep.
Your smile brings me joy,
your tears cause me to weep.

A connection as strong as can be
this bond I will break never.
Like two peas in a pod,
we are friends forever.

Memories built and shared,
laughter, tears, hugs, and smiles.
You brighten my day each time we talk,
feeling close and fading the miles.

I'm happy to share so many memories,
Even happier to make more.
For you, I would do anything, anytime,
For you, my heart has an open door.

Trust me my dear sweet friend,
in me, my word, my heart.
I will hold fast as long as I live,
praying that we might never part.

from Joann...

You truly were an angel
sent from God in heaven above.
Your shocking death just broke the hearts of everyone you loved.
When I found out that you had died
I thought that they were wrong.
You were so alive - and then
just like that, you were gone.
A flame blown out in seconds,
Confirming our worst fears -
A light that shines no more on earth
for which we shed many tears.
But still you are my Sis
And I need you right now.
You hear all the prayers I say
Because they are answered somehow.
I wish that you could be here,
But in a way you are.
Your symbol of a rose goes everywhere with me,
so I know you can't be far.
It still is quite a shock to me
that you had to die;
But no one will forget you ...

love you and will miss you until we meet again Sis

I created you in my image
With grace and love, I made you mine
The life you've endured may have changed you,
yet your beauty within remains the same.
Never have I left you...
I have shed tears in the face of your pain.
Now is the time for you to come to me.
My child, I hold your deliverance in my hands.
I see that you are weary........
