my sister sat on the floor,

coloring on a giant piece of red paper.
"what ya got there, Kristin?" i asked.
she looked up at me with her big blue eyes and said,
"i'm making a card."
"for who?" i wondered.
"It's this kid at my school. he was absent on his birthday..."
i watched her sign her name with a heart and close up the paper.
"hey lauren, will you drive me to his house to drop it off?"
i nodded my head because it was obvious she liked this kid.
my sister smiled and put on her shoes.
when we got in the car my sister knew exactly where to go.
i was listening to her directions as we pulled up to the driveway.
but it was no house we had arrived at, it was the hospital.
i followed my sister into the front door and over the the desk
"can i see billy franklin?" my sister asked.
the nurse smiled and let my sister follow behind her.
we arrived to this room with the name billy franklin on the door in crayon.
i watched as my six year old sister walked up to his bed.
the little boy looked very weak, with loose patches of hair.
it was easy to tell he had cancer
but my sister walked up to him and handed him his card
suddenly, he looked less weak as he started to smile.
"i felt bad you missed your birthday. i love you, billy..." my sister said.
the poor little boy smiled and gave my sister a little half hug.
my eyes were getting teary as my sister held his hand and just talked to him.

now that, was love.
