Sibling Love

Sibling love is special and sacred Very unique as mothers make it be Starts with birth of children to moms And exists till the very end of life Sibling sisters in their love are overt Happiness of all is their very goal; set Sibling brothers caring is overt too They act swiftly; in times of distress Siblings cry at will; laugh with no end They care and willingly share all time They readily dare and willingly bear Fight when helpless; give up anyway Born separate; yet DNA is the same Eldest and youngest are rank special The big brother is always big fellow And the youngest one is always dear Bodies are different as sister and brother The hearts are the same and love filled They are born in turns at different times But the chemistry is matched perfectly Just decades ago in joint families Siblings numbered 5,6,7,8,9 & more But off late it is just 2 and 3 or only 1 The nuclear families have made it so Siblings go through thick and thin of life Be there sorrow; or be there happiness Whether a birthday or an anniversary event A wedding or ceremony they show up together Union of parents put them on mother earth It explains the blinding love for mom and dad This da Vinci code made their binding bonded Siblings thus lived through a generation of love As time soon came to a pass, with fleeting age Retirements, ailments and loneliness followed The order of birth is just not followed in death End is inevitable for all sometime some day My youngest sister passed away last summer And a part of me was lost forever, overnight She was the last dear sibling to be born: alas She became first sibling to die; and to mourn During her birth her dad was not by her side On death her siblings could be not at her side Bitter memory we all will carry till the very end As siblings failed and for once for all time! Corona hit the world and hit very hard It killed some in my family and my sibling too! It destroyed relationships and families too It separated many parents and children too!
