Honest words. Life is weird. What we lost in relationships is often very difficult to retrieve. Liked your good mind good thoughts, a bit confessing though. Good poem Rose Marie 10+

...I could turn back The hands of time... What words! No one can erase it. These are the words of the gods. Great.

Innocence is divine, and even moments of self sound sweet. An elder sister say at twelve to one about one year is ten times her wisdom. Yet, the same difference in age when she is sat fifteen makes a different picture. The piece draws a very immaculate portrait. I liked what I read.

She is very much like me Wrapped in a different body She adored Everything I got From the sole of my feet To the top of my head.........love and affection flows here deeply. A brilliant penning really.

....... yet I am sure, there is an inalienable bond between the two of you! The love siblings have, though might wane at times, cannot be taken away for ever. So you can stay confident at the thought that you'll be able to reinstate the attachment you had once though it is foolish to expect her to follow you like 'a dog after its master'! Interesting read!

ONE: A loveliest poem about your sisters, especially about your youngest sister. It's oft like that when teenage time comes, a radical change takes place. IF I may say the grow hormones are starting to work hardest. A most valuable poem for the family archives to read time and again, Mrs. Juan-Austin.
