Sisters by Marriage

A Poem

By Mother CombsPublished 2 years ago 1 min read

S - Stitched together by our parents' union

I - Inseparable girls held together by a bond

S - Sharing clothes, a room, and so much more

T - The proof that blood doesn’t make one kin

E - Eager to spend time together

R - Refusing those who would separate, a united trio

S - Sitting side by side

*******************************************

Sisters since seventy-nine

Accepting each other from the beginning

Standing up for each other

As if we were biologically connected

No one knew we weren’t blood-related

Because we were as close as sisters could be

Two the same age and one four years older

Sharing clothes and toys

Sleeping in the same little bed

The older, more of a sister/mom

While the two younger forged a bond as deep as twins

Further proof that kids don’t need blood to be kin

Come near, sit a spell, and listen to tales of old as I sit and rock by my fire. I'll serve you some cocoa and cookies as I tell you of the time long gone by when your Greats-greats once lived.
