Happy Birthday Sister
by Thena Smith
I searched and searched for something
To give you on your special day
But nothing was quite goodenough
Or not the words I wanted to say!
I looked in the stores to find
That perfect little gift
Something very special
To give your heart a lift.
I looked in the bookstores
And even Wal-Mart too...
Nothing could come close
To being special enough for you.
I looked in ads of newspapers
I even looked on line
Praying that somewhere
A special gift I would find.
Then I felt a gentle nudge
That gave me quite a start
T'was if a voice said to me
"Look within your heart!"
So I looked inside my heart
At all the memories there
Of all the wonderful loving
Memories that we share.
And I came up with this little verse
That is so simple yet true
The best thing about being sisters
Is that I have YOU!
I love and miss ya Melissa. I hope you have a good birthday as you sing and dance with the butterflies.
Love,
Marybeth
