100% genuine and real
Always kind and sincere
Honest to the core
Loyal forever more
Lingering there in the shadows
Doesn’t know how to say no
Helps anyone in need
Hides behind the scenes
Gives every project all her undivided attention
Often into the wee hours of the night again and again
Quick with heartfelt hugs and a smile
Always goes the extra mile
Loves unconditionally with all her heart
Finishes everything she starts
A concern for others all the time
A woman of great inner strength and family pride
Takes care of everyone else
But regularly neglects herself
Holds my hand even when she is not near
I know without a doubt that she is always there
Listens with an understanding ear
Calls all those she loves dear
Always reliable and selfless
A little bit devious and appears tireless
A little camera shy
Not one to ever tell a lie
Avoids the bright spotlight
Loves her children with all her might
A true and honest friend with a heart of gold
I consider her a sister and I love her so
