I made this poem especially for my only sister in her birthday, happy birthday sis…
this is my present to you, hope you like this poem because I made this from the bottom of my heart.


One cold night in the middle of February,
The air is freezing even though summer is approaching,
I went outside the garden, where my roses are slowly vanishing
As I watch the petals waving goodbye,
I realized they were just travelling beyond the horizon
I took a glimpse in the sky and saw something beyond the clouds
The moon and the north star shining together
They are like twins that can never be apart
They sparkle together and bestow inspiration
Just like the two of us, aside of sharing the same DNA
And have the same the same origin,
We are completely different,
But we are unique in our own way,
You’re like the moon and I’m the North Star
You are extrovert and I’m introvert
You can move mountain by your bare hands,
And I can hardly break the glass..
You are like the super hero in the movie
And I’m a helpless extra that needs help,
Yes, you are always there with a helping hand
Through all the years even though you are miles away
And even though we sometimes offended each other
And sometimes hurt each other unintentionally
I never get furious and angry with you
And I hated myself that moment when you boarded the plane
Without uttering the words “I’m Sorry”
I wanted to embraced you that moment and say how sorry I am
For being obtuse and dim-witted
I never intend of hurting the people around me
I cried in my bed upon reading your letter.
And I despised myself that moment….
You just don’t know how grateful I am being your sister
Beyond the sea I know that you were there somewhere
In front of your monitor always blogging and googling
I whisper in the wind to tell you how much I miss you
The anguish of being apart broke my heart,
But I know that you’re just spreading your wings
And reaching high to achieve every aspiration in life
I’m very proud of you; I don’t often tell you this but…
You are still the sister I want to have
Beyond life and life beyond
The roses will fade…. the orchids will die…
But my love for you will linger on..
No matter how far apart
I will always love you, my one and only sister.
I’m just a face book away from you
Have a very wonderful birthday.
Yo Te amo
Aesteru yo
Mi amor
I love you

What a lovely poem. Heart piercing. A ghee, you are so lucky for having a sister as sweet as Elynne.

There is a lot of love in the world, But there's nothing like a sister's love.
