Dear Sisters

Thanks for the friendships

made over the years,

But, saying ‘good-bye’

would bring me to tears.

My feet and my knees

have suffered too long.

So I’ve finally succumbed

to their mournful song.

While I’m lounging at home-

feet propped in the air,

I’ll think of you all

and wish I were there.

And tho’ I’m sneaking out;

to change, I will never!

You can rest assured,

I’ll remain ‘mean as ever’.

Love ya’ all

Sister May Winkel
