I liked having the explanation/story up at the top. The Story itself could be flushed out a little more and stand strong on its own you have a good voice and the story itself is an emotionally moving one. The poem itself pulls at emotions and brings strong images to my mind.

Comment from dragonpoet
Linda,
I like hearing of your history. Sorry you had that rough start. I never understand how nun's could think that kind of actions are christian.
You are right that she is a good writer.
I like the miracle of the tear and the flower falling when both of you left.
Showing the Madonna was sad.
Keep writing and stay healthy

I agree.
I didn't show my writing to anyone until I started posting on line. I started writing in high school in 1980
You're welcome, Linda.
Same to you.

Linda,
You and any sister had an extraordinary bond and always will. I am so sorry to hear what you both endured so young. Your sister was very protective of you and loved you dearly.
I am sorry for the loss of your dear sister; my heart and prayers are with you.
Your sister's poem was penned from her heart, and she was beautiful.
You did an outstanding job in the penning of this story and sharing her heartfelt poem.
Thanks for sharing, and may God continue to comfort and keep you in His loving care.
Lots of HUGS and love...Portia

Comment from Roxanna Andrews
I'm so sorry you had this very hard thing to deal with and that it affected your sister so badly. It would do the same to me. Being left like that is so scary. It happened a lot years ago, today kids just get abandoned. Glad you and she had writing to express your feelings. Thank you for sharing.

Hi Roxanna, Thank You for a wonderful review...
I will never understand a mother giving her child away...
I have heard a lot of people on here that have had that done...
Thank You...and you are so welcome...love you...Linda xxoo
Comment from estory
I think its a moving portrait of your sister, and the struggles she went through with you, in that orphanage. It is very interesting to see the poem she wrote, and how those struggles and pain infused her poem. It was like an expression of her feelings of abandonment and all her insecurities. The images in the poem were really quite striking and emotional. Very poignant. I could see how she got published. estory

My Sister and I
by l.raven
Honey, I'm so sorry for your loss. You wrote a beautiful poem story. It's heartfelt and moving...so sad. The plot is conveyed in a clear manner.
These sentences confused me a little...
"A couple years later my mother, ..... came to pick us up....
...We remembered our mother dropping us off, and just walking away."
She picked you up and dropped you off....where? Did you live with her after she picked you up?
Your sister's poems are beautiful. You honored her by sharing your story and her poems. Well done, Linda. Love you.
Gypsy hugs
