Darkness cloaks sun’s light
Death irrevocably snuffs out breath of life
Two pregnant sisters, one hot summer day
Two sons born, only one lives today
Thirty plus love and life filled years between
Then history replays the cruelest of scenes
Only this time fate reverses their role
Same two sisters, one cold winter day
Two granddaughters
One celebrated arrival, one tearful goodbye
Grief shows no comfort, knows no friend
Sisters forever bound
By blood, by love
And the heartbreak of loss
