Forever a Sister Poem Verses

Sister-in-law, sister of my heart,
Your love and kindness, set us apart,
In a world that's often harsh and cruel,
You were a light, a shining jewel.

The bond we shared, the memories we made,
Will forever stay, and never fade,
For though you're gone, your legacy lives,
In the love and light that it gives.

So farewell, dear sister-in-law, my friend,
For in my heart, you'll never end.
