In Memory of My Sister-in-law

A sister to me

You always were

One of the best

That I am sure

 

Jumping in the car

Always running around

Visiting our families

No matter what town

 

Hour after hour

Always on the run

Spending time together

Having lots of fun

 

Stopping to eat

Or eating in the car

Never wanting to quit

Whether near or far

 

Riding in the country

Showing beautiful scenes

Of places you lived

And places you been

 

Acre after acre

Land after land

Being really proud

Sharing memories so grand

 

Reminiscing of times

Of things you sowed

Telling us stories

Of things long ago

 

The years flew by

And now have passed

Leaving only memories

That will always last

 

You’ve reaped the harvest

Time here is no more

God has called you home

To His beautiful Shore.
