Often we go through life and we forget how influential our closest family members have been in our life. This poem is a heartfelt sentiment to my wonderful and beautiful younger sister,who through the highs and lows of my life has always been there for me. Thank you Leanne, you are so very special to me, more than you’ll ever know.
When we were young sis, we always used to fight
Early in the morning and mostly every night
I didn’t really appreciate back then, the special person in you
I now recognise that failing, so evident and true
But as we got older, I changed my poor sisterly ways
You became a best friend and we went on holidays
I love you my dear sister, you are so special to me
More than you’ll ever know, more than I let you see
I always feel so happy, when you are around
You cheer up the room, lots of laughter is your sound
And always when I need you, to my door you come a knocking
There with open arms and then we do some talking
You laugh at your own jokes and I find that very funny
Your spirit is so alive and your attitude is always sunny
Sister dear sister, you’ve made my life so great
I couldn’t ask for a better sister, 10 out of 10 you rate
