To Miss My Sis

Reta Looker 1965 (Kentucky)

My life changed the day you left
All I have known since is feeling bereft
For so long my life missed yours
Always finding those closed doors
Now your gone in a permanent way
So to talk with you I bow my head and pray
It's my only way to speak to you anymore anyway
I used to call every winter spring summer and fall
Now I can't ....  not any day..... not ever .....  at all
I miss you Chris My Sis
In sadness and when I feel Bliss
Reta
Your Baby sis
2023
