Happy birthday

Tomorrow is your birthday.
Facebook asks if I would like to schedule you a gift.

What would I wish for you?
Another walk along the Gloucester shore.
Another frolic with Gordie on the beach at Hatteras.
Another race in the Mystic River;
Another day fishing.
Another day on this earth without pain and suffering.
And another day to just tell you
How much I love you.

Instead, I can only wish you
eternal peace, forever love,
and the hope that we will meet again some day.

Happy birthday, my seestor.
