My Sister

I look at you and see so many memories of our youth

Late night slinky races on the steps during school nights

Objects with little or no meaning to others are special

With the right distance, my slinky is faster than yours

A life time of memories are wrapped in our hearts

Even at our worst of times, you were always there

We have seen each other go through out trials

At times just being the friendly ear we needed

You have been the voice of reason in my storm

Voice of goofy but silliest ideas making us laugh

Wanting to laugh when you turn so tomato mad

Silly songs in my head that don’t go away

Looking at the memories of today and yesterday

Knowing that we started fresh and clean once more

A sisterly bond that is truly magical and special

Tender laugh to bring my mood back to happiness

Sitting together sharing memories as we got older

Teasing each other about our silliest moments

Laughing at wild geese holding grudges after all

Crazy dreams of what we wanted to with our life

I hold you dear to my chest because you are special

Admiring how you have grown as a woman today

Smiling at the happiness you have truly deserved

A phoenix rising from her ashes of her former self

A beautiful book in the form of my baby sister

Knowing there is more to tell of your adventures

So many more beautiful memories to write down

My favorite is finding our way back to each other
