In Memoriam of the sister I never knew

13th December 1952 – 13th December 1952

I should have had an older sister

Of her I never knew

Now I know that sister

Should have been you;

You never even took a breath

In this great world of ours

How I wish you would have lived

Even for a few hours;

Our Mum often told me about you

And how you would have been

The first daughter and Sephton’s twin

So close we would have been;

So still you were, yet perfect too,

When you were born they say

How I wish I would have known you

My big sister, to this day.
