Our Youngest sis, extends a hand to another,
She cares for her, as she would our mother.
Sometimes it is hard to give total care,
But, it happens always; because love is there.

The ill one is being watched over; every single day.
She has Alzheimer’s; she has lost her way…
But, this loving sis is always there; to take care.
She knows how it feels, when we know love is there.

She is precious in our Lords’ eyes and heart.
The love she bears another; He’ll never part.
Gather round family; listen to her humble prayer.
She knows our sis’s heart, because love is there.

She holds her hand fast, just as we did for our mother,
When she was so ill; we wrapped her in cover.
Make her comfortable as possible, while in silent prayer.
We let Mama know, as she does for our sis; because love is there,
