A Dear Sister

Folder: 
Family

If I don't write you this poem,

I think I'll always ponder,

the times when we're together,

when you would scold me, cuz

I was younger.

You braided my hair, and really

took care,that I ate so well,

whenever I'm sick,till my eyes are unclear.

And now that I'm older,my memories

are clearer,you my older sister has always

been an angel.

You shared us your shelter,your success

and your triumph,a family of your own,

so proud of your endeavors,you were always

the brave one,and toiled hard for your future.  



But this poem will never be complete,

if I don't appreciate,

your beauty and your grace,

that is number one in your list.

Don't worry my dear sister,

you are always remembered,

not only thru your kindness,

but also your beauty....

that can grace the pages.



Dedicated to my older sister: Elenita

Oh your poem brought a lump to my throat and tears threatened. How wonderful to have such appreciation of such a sister. I too have an older sister who has always tried to be there for me.
Lovely writing. Thank you for your critique.
