Having a sister in your life can either be a wonderful or terrible experience, depending on your relationship. If you have an older sister and you are a girl, she can often show you how to navigate the way through some of the more difficult areas of growing up. This is also true if you are a boy. Your older sister can help explain to you how to interact with the opposite sex. Younger sisters are a joy as well. They often worship their older siblings and it can be a nice experience to be admired. Relationships with sisters, like any relationship depend on the people involved.

The Burkhead Way

What can you say about a sister who
Has everything? Laughter, life, love
Smiles, tears, enthusiasm, spark, knowledge,
Spunk and to top it all off, Beauty.

A sister isn’t just a sibling!
She is a whole world.
The things she touches are amazing. The love
She shares is beautiful.
And her encouragement is spectacular.

To have a sister doesn’t make you special,
To know your sister, makes you invincible.
The bond sisters’ share is enlightening.
The love they give to each other is magnificent.

To look into your sisters eyes and know
What she is thinking, isn’t a miracle, it’s natural
To see her smile warms your heart. To hear her talk
Sooths your soul. To feel her heartbeat in you, is special.

They say sisters are from cradle to grave,
But I believe that it is the in between that counts.
When she takes the rap for something you did,
She doesn’t need a thanks, she does it because she cares.

When she sits up till 3:00 AM with you,
Even if she has to get up at 7:00 AM,
She doesn’t feel exhausted, she feels cleansed

When you two cry together till your eyes are all puffy,
She isn’t just sad she believes that it cures the heart.
When she picks out your first prom dress, or brings you
Your first flowers, and when she buys you a card because
You had a bad day she is glad that she could help.

A sister’s word of encouragement or warning
Is always taken to heart. When she explains
How to handle a boy at school, or how to
Talk to mom, she’s touched that you came to her.

When she can sympathize with you
Because she’s been there, it’s comforting.
When she can share your dreams with you,
It’s encouraging. When she beats you up
Because you’re a brat, it’s learning.

Sisters can do anything. Together they
Will conquer the world. But when it’s
All said and done, she will hold you hand
Because she’s proud to be your sister.

So, if you are blessed to have a sister through blood,
Be thankful. And if you’re all alone, grab the first precious girl
In your life, and make her your sister.
Sisters are everything you need.
And a whole lot more.

Helen, My Sister My Friend

© Cyndi Moore

Sister, we’ve been there through life’s sorrow and pain
But together we have always endured the strain
We’ve argued and bickered and made each other mad
But if you weren’t my sister, life would be so sad
We’ve cried till we laughed and laughed till we cried
Sometimes for no reason we didn’t even know why
When we’re not together our bond is just as strong
Because we are sisters we know when something is wrong
We’ve whispered our deepest secrets only sisters could share
I love my sister dearly because she really cares
So whether we are together or we are far apart
Helen, you’re my sister, my friend and forever in my heart.

Big Sis I Love You

© Ranja Kujala

My dear Big Sis, you are the greatest there is,
And amazing in everyway.
I greatly admire and look up to you,
Each and every day.

You are always showing how much you care,
From your heart that is filled with love.
You are a beautiful Angel,
Sent from the heavens above.

I am the luckiest Sis in the world,
To have grown up next to you.
We played and laughed and had fun together,
A great bond that has always stayed true.

Big Sis you are always in my heart & thoughts,
And I am always sending you a hug and kiss.
You are my world and I love you so much,
Always and Forever…Your Lil’ Sis.

y Favorite Sister

© Robin S. Holtgrefe

We’ve shared laughter
We’ve shared tears
Loves lost, love found
Though it all we’ve stayed together
From heart breaks, to soul mates
From life’s hardships, to life’s happiness
Our stupid fights
Our silly nights
We’ve been there and done it
We’ve seen life end and life begin
And the joy I felt when you had your first kid
Can never be replaced
Now you’re gone
We don’t share each others time
But you’re still with me everyday and night
No matter how far you are
You will always be
My favorite sister.

Sisters

© Kelli M. Kotthoff

A sister is a best friend that you keep forever
She is your permanent shoulder to lean on
I would like to tell you now
My sister
How well you have filled the role
And how I hope and try my best to give you
The same unconditional love that you have given me
Throughout the years of our lives
I don’t know what I would have done without
You
After all, every girl needs a best friend,
A confidant,
And someone that they can count on
No matter what.
Thank you for being that person.

Family Friend Poems

sisters are..

clothes barrowers

fit throwers

cover stealers

secret keepers

an enemy, a friend,

a convorsation without end,

sassy,bossy,silly,fussy

pretty and sweet

tea partys with trea

dress up, mess up, fess up, get punished,

fights over nothing, sharer of dreams

a headache, a pain, she gets spoiled again,

a princess, a brat, she ruined my hat,

i love her, i miss her, i tease her, i kiss her,

she is my family and that means more to me

what would i do without her?

SISITER
Sister you are always their,
and for the most part you have always been fair.
Though we don’t always get along,
our relationship has always been pretty strong.

Sis. you have always shown support for me,
even when everyone is doubting me.
You always believe in what I do,
so just know that I love you.

I’m sorry for not always believing in you,
but I’m sometimes immature and don’t always think in what you do.
Forgive me for being a jerk in the past,
but aren’t you lucky that stage didn’t last.

I’m proud of you too,
and I know I can expect more good things from you.
You are so loving and caring,
I wish everyone had what you do.

You aren’t so far away from me,
but it doesn’t mean that don’t miss you
So the next time you visit you’ll see the new me,
this is just a small way to tell you I Love You.
