Sister

Where ever you go, Whatever you do
A keepsake to carry, she's always with you
Nostalgia follows, a sliver of childhood
Never to be lost, that is sisterhood
Both your mirror and your opposite
Everlasting, a bond so definite
A family tree, grown from the same roots
Individual blossoms taking their own routes
Shared experiences, in tune, a wave length
A home to return to, a giver of strength
A safety net allowing you to reach new heights
Cheering you on, hoping you take flight
Designed to catch you when you fall
Stand you back up, nice and tall
A pusher who believes the sky is the limit
A shining light, you can never dim it
A sister is a necessity, a blessing, it's true
L’amour entre deux, love between two
Souls adjoined, like rope intertwine
Forever together, glad you're mine

Jesse, I can see how much your sister means to you and I feel the same about mine. Just posted a poem about her. I hope you show this poem to your sister. It will surely lift her spirits. Very touching and a favorite for me. Best wishes, Carolyn
