"Prayers and Thoughts for Gypsy"


Prologue
Keeping Gypsy in Prayer

By Debi Pick Marquette


I have some news that I just learned about Gypsy today

I found out that her older sister has just passed away

So, we'll all keep her in our thoughts, and for her we will pray

Because we love you, Gypsy, there is more we'd like to say 



She was older but you were an inseparable pair

The time you had together, there's nothing that will compare

In good and also bad times, for each other you were there

And continents apart would never change how much you care



We hope you know we're thinking of you, Gypsy, our dear friend

And we know that the love for your sister will never end

With friendship and compassion, our condolences we send

We pray that memories will give you peace and help you mend
 
 

Author Notes Please add a poem or prose to show Gypsy you're thinking of her


Chapter 1
Mermaid Wishes

By Debi Pick Marquette

This mermaid swims in warm salty water
thinking of a poet so fine and beautiful

your sister is with you always as she
smiles at brightly colored fish

the sun rises on a blue ocean
waves are soft, reaching the shore

the sea lady's wish is that
her thoughts reach your soul

memories of good times create
pictures of happiness

may your sister be with you
and watch over you


















Chapter 2
Sending Some Love

By Debi Pick Marquette

Gypsy, This I know,
though you must miss sister so,
for sisters make wonderful friends,

Your years together
in all sorts of weather
showed love, on which one depends.

So I wanted to say
you may not see the way
to a happier place and time.

But know that my prayer,
it will always be there
both at home and in this rhyme.

Author Notes Gypsy, You are being thought of and prayed for tonite and continuing. If you ever need to talk, I am here. I am sending virtual hugs and lots of encouragement that you will get through this:)

Chapter 3
A Special Gift for Sisters

By Debi Pick Marquette




A sister is a special gift,
But sometimes things will go adrift.

We might lose touch and feel regret,
Then love finds a way, don't forget.

You'd reach across, and then she'd smile,
And bonds you shared were all worthwhile.

When vibrant moon is up above,
You'll know your heart is filled with love.

Since love remains in sisters' heart,
A bond has formed and won't depart.

For sisters who once shared a gift
Will know they'll never go adrift.

Chapter 4
Sister

By Debi Pick Marquette

 
               Silently her laughter echoes
               Iconic as her funny frown
               Sweet memories of one last hug
               That coming years can never drown
               Each mirrored glimpse of morning's grace
               Reflects a bond time can't erase
 

Author Notes For Gypsy, with condolences...

Chapter 5
Her Love Remains

By Debi Pick Marquette

 
 
Her sister’s love
sheltered her 
when Mother’s scent faded from
 the clothes 
unneeded in Heaven
 
Her sister’s love
guarded her fragile heart
from the cold indifference 
of Father’s new bride
 
Her sister’s love
warmed the distance
from an ocean and a continent away
 
Her sister’s love remains 
as she smiles down
from a dimension unseen
but closer than we know
 

Author Notes Thanks to Debi for creating this book for Gypsy when she learned that Gypsy's sister had died.

Thanks to all who prayed for Gypsy and her family and all those affected by the Southern California fires. Gypsy said they finally got rain. Please continue to pray for the recovery and rebuilding. She said her grandson's school burned down.
