POEM

Ode to Sibling Day

A special day, a loving grace,

For those who share a time and space.

Through childhood years, together grew,

Sharing secrets, old and new.

Remember laughter, tears that dried,

A constant presence, side by side.

The ties that bind, a sacred thread,

Through sunny days and storms ahead.

Affection grows, a gentle hand,

Together strong, a helping band.

A friendship true, a constant light,

Heart to heart, both day and night.
