Notes About The Poem

My New Sister

Sister

You are a gift. 
You are a brilliant, 
beautiful flower. 
You are a rose in the garden.
You are a vivid, 
and intense color, 
unique among all others. 
I see you. 

You are a presence... 
an emotion moving like music. 
You are a perfume. 

My new sister... 
You make me laugh, 
you hold me up. 
You give me so much more, 
then you take. (or accept)
I can never give back... 
half of the kindness, 
thoughtfulness, 
and love... 
you have so readily
given. 

I look forward to our life... 
Your brother is a good man, 
and I have gained, 
a family. 
A real... 
family.

The love and joy is felt in each line, Ann. Mazeltov! (as they say in Ireland). Smiles, Gershon
