I'm sitting here with moist eyes, Jessica. This is so softly offered, as a whisper accompanying a gentle embrace of comfort. Such a fine offering for this book! You truly are an artist...and equally so, a friend!

Gorgeous, Jess! Our siblings are, as you say, woven into our very fabric. They line our souls and hearts, and to lose a brother or sister, to me, is unimaginable.

I can merely see their pain without feeling it to their degree.

Best, JohnC

This is such a stunning poem, Jessica! I loved how you take us from the pain of loss and to the healing realization that the loved ones are always with us. I am sure Sandra will be blessed by this!

I've known Sandra for some years now, she is a quality person who has suffered her share of illness, but has emerged victorious, but Ian, in the other hand, has been suffering for longer, and is probably in a better place, no more suffering, a beautifully written post Jessica, Sandra will be blessed, Roy

This is such a thoughtful and loving verse for Sandra during this difficult time. Your words clearly speak from the heart in this free verse, not least because you too have suffered the heartbreaking wrench of losing a younger sibling. Well done for this fine token of empathy and my condolences to Sandra. Debbie xos

Out of sixes so please accept my virtual TEN!! Wow, this is lovely coming from one who also knows how it feels to lose a sibling. When I look and see that both my brothers died in their 40s, I think that is young. But you lost your sister so young.
I loved this, Jess. You are always amaze me and will always be like a little shining star that God sent here as an earth angel to touch so many lives, but I am claiming to be the one who benefits the most from your gift of writing and gift of you!
Thank you for that, as it comes right in time for next weeks holiday, and you give me one more thing to be thankful for: you and your friendship. Priceless!

This is a really sad piece to read and I do feel devastated for Sandra. Losing a sibling must be an unimaginable loss, and I'm sorry to hear about your own loss as well.

Thank you for sharing this beautiful poem for Sandra and her family with us. I know Sandra and her family feel the love and prayers of her FanStory family as we lift them up to God.
