My Sister Lives Too Far Away
It’s difficult to see her, no way.
I remember our sisterhood,
Which is sweet and good.
.
So close together, a decade ago,
She was the one who knows me the best.
She is so loving, I know,
I miss her so much, hard to have a rest.
.
She helped me see things I would not see myself,
She offered me support that touched my heart.
I pray a beautiful life to herself,
This love for her will last despite the fact that we are apart.

NICE POEM, JINGLE!
I LOVE THIS BUT IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN BROTHERHOOD, HAHHAHAHA! I MISS MY SISTER ALSO
Sisterhood, the fortress of so many women… nice representation here.
Sweet!
Sweet poem full of fondness and love, Jingle! Especially with the holidays approaching, it is not surprising to feel the longing for family.. !
I am sure she is smiling
Much love to you,
Rachana.
This is beautiful Ji! Family bonds are the best.
I miss my sister too…. she lives 2000 miles away… thanks Ji!
Ohh That is soo sweet, now I am missing my sister all the more.. and I must write one for her too!!
Apart because of the distance, but I’m sure very close in the hearts! Great one, Ji!
My sisters live far away also and I miss talking to them. Beautiful poem.
This is a lovely poem. Wonderful to have a good sister and sad to live far apart, but the love is there and that’s what counts, huh?
Hey, Ji, I think it’s a great idea to explain how to link into potluck. I hope it’s okay. I’m going to add that to my blog. Maybe it will help drive traffic to potluck.
Blog on …
Distance is always hard, especially with the ones we love the most. My brother’s likewise flown the coop, going far and away from my area – just life, interjecting itself. Sounds like you treasure your sister very dearly, though. Glad you two have had that connection!
blood is thicker than water..
A lovely poem this.. not many can express their love this way for their siblings.. well done.. and hey, thanks for letting me know about some award for me.. it emboldens..
Your comments will keep me going..
yes it is hard to be apart from family, but memories are always there to bring a smile– nice potluck!
my sibling is my best friend too. thats a great luck. because the way our siblings can understand us, and that special bonding is rare to found.
just loved the poem ji. its lovely. beautifully written and full of love.
So sweet, amazing work as always my friend!
Beautiful take on the sisterly bond, unbroken by space. Always a winner J, nice poem.

A very sweet poem. Lovely.
Wonderful tribute to your sister!
I love your sweet tribute of your love for your sister, Jingle.
I miss my sisters too when they’re away for too long. Luckily they visit pretty regularly though–I have two who live far away and one lives near. They’re my best friends in the world–along with my two brothers!
Very beautiful poem.

Indelibly sweet. I miss my sister too.
Jingle,
The link to Blue Monday is difficult to spot. Could you please move it up, or state that it’s a link for Blue Monday?
yes, of course.

Such a lovely poem to your faraway sister. I have four sisters and two brothers that live faraway. However, we get together every few years, when I go back to visit family. Such fun to see them all again.
Hi Jingle,
Now I missed my only sister…and thank goodness I just had a great time with her last week when we have had a reunion and visited my father’s tomb, 13 years after he met a fatal accident.
Thanks for sharing this beautiful photo, even my sister lives too far away from…or rather I am the one who lives farthest from the rest of my siblings so I have to travel so much just to be with them!
A strong love of your sister; sometimes sibling relationships can be difficult but yours obviously is very strong.
Very nice composition.
Blue at Spice Up Your Life, have A nice Monday!
Sibling love is as great as many blood relation.
Sisters are most loving, your expression is cute.
Thanks for sharing.
SURE IT IS.
Nice. There’s nothing quite like a sister.
Very beautiful Ji. My brother lives a very long way away, this reminds me of the feeling I get from this. Wonderful words

Cheers!!!

Having a sister is a gift we sometimes don´t recognize until it´s taken far away from us…
I know how it´s like to miss her, because somehow as years passed by, she became your best friend, someone you trust.
Great Post!
Thanks a lot for the award!
This is a precious piece Jingle. A spot on reflection of a loving sisterly bond. Bravo!
It’s wonderful to have a sister!
Aww…how sweet is that! I hope you and your sister are able to meet more often, Jingle…
Beautifully written here, this ode to sisterhood!!

hey,
lovely poem, made me remember of my sis.
And probably got a title to write about.
A cute and lovely poem…
I miss my sister so much…I miss the fighting we used to do…I miss her complaining to Dad about my mischiefs…
Thank you for sharing this…
This is a great description of sister love and a sister’s bond. You did an amazing job of capturing it!
Jingle- love this sister poem- right now I am spending time in Mexico with one of my “sisters”. A wonderful friend that I have known since we were both 10!
Thanks for your nice words and support!
Yeah, Jingle, you got that.. I miss my sister also… we were very close growing up. She’s just travelled of to india and New Zealand etc. but has been living away for ages with a son.
Nice poem

Hi Jingle, you and your sis are lucky to have such good sisters!

Sisters are special~
having family first can make you write and talk about the familybond in a very charming way.
Loved it.

Sweet! I miss my sisters. We have grown apart since we started working and left home. But we meet as often as possible.
A very beautiful dedication to sisterhood.
