Two Sisters

On a mild summer day,
on a hill lush and green,
two tired sisters relaxed 
and enjoyed the country scene.

A mild breeze was blowing that
cooled their skin from the hot sun,
the sky was a brighter blue
from when the day had first begun.

Their morning chores were finished 
and it was their favorite time of day,
they would rest by a stream up there 
and let it take their cares away.

This was a present from God 
a time for him to show them his love,
they could marvel at his creation 
as he watched them from above.

Two sisters, a day of bonding
and being of one accord,
a precious time, a special time
between them and the Lord.
