I have a sister
who despises me
Over what is
ancient history
And treats my family
with utter contempt
From her own past
seems she is exempt
To my loving husband
she’s never spoken
Though I must say
his heart isn’t broken
He looks at her
in the same way
That she views me
with open display
It bothers the others
more than does me
Because of this one
thought I do carry
When there does come
her judgement’s time
Whose will God see
as the greater crime
Those sins I’ve committed
done in my past
Though they were seen
as plenty and vast
Or the one that
she repeats every day
when no forgiveness
is shown my way?
And yet I wish
she would at least try
For my parents sake
before the both die!

Yeah, it gets harder once parents are gone. But people have to live with their choices. You just do what you can do.
Yes, them most certainly do! Like I said in the poem, it bothers my kids more than it does me. The thing that I get upset about is when she is blatantly rude to my husband who has done nothing to her except marry me!! Maybe she’s just jealous, but her husband is a great guy too. I don’t think about it much though, except when I’m prompted to, lol! Thanks for the comment, Karen!!! Blessings, Terri
