Just a poem I wrote years ago that I forgot even existed.
Gatherings few and far between Cautious excitement builds within Distance between too extreme Mother greets child, escorts her in Siblings hug yet barely touch Surfacing streams of resentment Emotions muffled by a blush Fear is replaced by contentment Greeting cards declare their thoughts Their sincerity is to be challenged But together here they have been brought Related strangers the room surrounds them For all the time they were apart Never did the telephone ring No letters, cards, or other art No communication was ever seen But on this day they're all together A bond is rebuilt within the walls Until the end of this grand gathering When to the wayside this magic falls
I agree with Danielle, Anne. Read my poem "Strangers", as to sibling relationships. I am a very decent, generous person, yet my sisters hate me so much, they will not have anything to do with me.
"I guess it would be hard growing up and relizing your sister is a stranger, you just have to remember that sometimes you can't change what is and tell yourself "Her loss.." :)" Danielle was right when she said this.
Thnx for sharing Anne.
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY Anne

I guess it would be hard growing up and relizing your sister is a stranger, you just have to remember that sometimes you can't change what is and tell yourself "Her loss.." :) excellent write ;)

"If I have to be this girl in me, Then I may as well be."

(did you mean mother greets - looks like one of my typos that spellcheck won't catch because it's still a word)
