Condolence Poems for a Sister

Gentle and Supportive

Her voice was calm, her presence warm,

A steady light through every storm.

She gave us strength without a sound.

Now though she’s gone, her love stays near,

A quiet touch we still hold dear—

A sister’s bond, still all around.

Calm and Comforting

She was the pause in hurried days,

The hug that soothed in quiet ways.

A sister who could sense your heart.

Now silence falls, yet still she’s near—

In every breath that calms your fear,

A bond that never drifts apart.

Warm and Unforgettable

She brought a light to simple things,

Like morning chats and silly flings.

Her joy was woven into life.

Though time moves on, we won’t forget

The sister we can’t quite forget—

So full of warmth, so free from strife.

When You’re Not Sure What to Say

It’s hard to speak when hearts are sore,

When someone’s sister is no more.

But poems can say what voices can’t.

These words won’t fix what time must heal,

But they can help the pain feel real—

And offer peace, both soft and scant.

Simple and Thoughtful

She knew the words to lift your day,

With gentle care in all she’d say.

A heart that always gave, not took.

Though she is gone, her grace remains—

In echoed laughs and soft refrains,

And every photo we still look.

Respectful and Personal

Not just a sister, but a friend—

The kind you trust until the end.

Her honesty was calm and true.

She shared her time, she gave her care,

And left a love beyond compare.

A soul as kind as morning dew.

Kind and Constant

Her kindness wasn’t grand or loud,

But quietly she made you proud.

A steady soul, forever true.

She stayed through storms, she cheered your wins,

And knew your heart beneath your skin.

Now all of that lives on in you.

When Words Aren’t Enough

When words fall short, just feel the love

She left in all you’re thinking of.

A sister’s bond won’t break with time.

Her voice may fade, her touch may dim,

But love still echoes deep within—

In every thought, in every rhyme.
