The many hours I spent grooming your hair,
Where like pearls we both did share.
I used to sing softly a lullaby it’s true,
And every word said I love you.

I loved to brush ringlets around my finger,
Which caused you to stay and linger.
I think back over those years,
Missing you brings me to tears.

Please, let me say this in all sincerity .
You are someone who maintains a rarity,
You stand out with great humility.
Your greatest quality is gentility

Come, remember how much it meant',
For all the joyful places we went.
I love you now and forever more,
You will always be the darling sister I adore.
