Older Sister

To my older sister on your day,
I hope it’s filled with joy and happiness,
It’s your day to do things your way,
With so many thoughts I write this,

Have a happy 20th,
Make this day truly special,
But save some for Saturday, not to miss,
I’m sure you’ll show up looking beautiful,

Although you’re not always here,
You know I’ll always wish you the best,
As I try not to shed a tear,
I know you won’t forget,

That I will always be here for you,
As a sister or just a friend,
To pick you up when you’re feeling blue,
Whenever needed to the end.

Dedicated to Tracy, happy 20th birthday.
