Youthful as a budding tree,

innocent as grace itself,

unbelieving of scary things—


No death,

No loss,

No heartbreak,

No foul.


Playing with little dolls

brought up one thing,

a special affair,

one tiny dress that brought much grief.


Loss of someone so near,

a sister,

it may appear.


Fancying the dress,

bringing her closer,

even though she desires to know,

what may have been

with a sister till the end.


The author's comments:

In my poetry class we did an activity and we had to write a poem about someone else's story and this story impacted me the most. Her story was about a tiny dress that belonged to her sister before she passed away and it meant a lot to her, along with being an item she was close with, the only thing bringing her close to her sister.
