Day 211: Dear Sis

Once in a year there is a day that is celebrated in ode of sisters and brothers, the relationship they share. This translates even if they are miles away, somewhere somehow it is important to express that they are there for each other. This poem is more on a personal note, written to my sis on this day, to remind her of our stories being written in different parts of the world. We are pieces that fit together somehow and at moments warm hugs from far away are constant reminders of the fact that we are here for each other. I hope this resonates to all who wrote to there brothers and sisters, letters for now, sent as poems somehow.

Dear Sis
The idea was that we were peas in a pod
We were imperfect and yet never flawed
We could comprehend things our own ways
We were unwritten stories kept some days

Some days we would fight it all
And can't remember why it started big or small
We were in sync and out sometimes
We were parts written separately & yet rhymed.


Growing up reminded me of the simple things
Where we learned how to be, where it all begins
To my sis who remembers when I made it at times
Who doesn't give up even if I might.

We are constant reminders of bonds miles away
Things that reach, even without a single word being said
We will start some things and build stories from scratch
I hope these words reach you dear sis wherever you are at.
