Analysis of Sisters
Sisters, a bond that is hard to define.
because it changes time after time.
Sometimes you wish they would just go away,
Other times the sight of them just brightens your day.
By love or by blood they can be your eternal friend,
The ones you don’t have to put on an act or pretend.
Sisters offer love and support without a word being spoken,
And create an awesome circle that refuses to be broken.
Sisters, that bond that is hard to define,
Because it changes time after time.........

About this poem
A few years ago, I acknowledged the change in my relationship with my sisters. Though there was a change, we still loved hard and helped each other no matter what went done. It only took a few words to express my feelings.
