Poems for Sisters

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.

  10. 8. One Sister Have I In Our House

    This poem is about Emily Dickinson's sister-in-law, Susan. Emily lived with her sister, Lavinia, ("One Sister have I in our house"), and she had a sister-in-law, Susan, her brother Austin's wife, who lived next door, ("one a hedge away"). "There's only one recorded" (Lavinia is her only biological sister). "But both belong to me" (she considers Susan to be a sister too, although they are actually sisters-in-law).

    One Sister have I in our house,
    And one, a hedge away.
    There's only one recorded,
    But both belong to me.

  12. 10. My Misfit Charlie

    After many years of abusive relationships and very serious health problems, my sister never judged me and always showed she loves me. I am proud that I named my daughter after her because if my daughter grows up to be anything like my sister, I am even more thankful than I am now.

    When I was small I tried filling your shoes.
    Not much has changed, it's what I still try to do.

    A tribute to the magical relationship between sisters. Not time nor space can lesson the bond. Forever in each other's hearts.

    We've argued and bickered and made each other mad,
    But if you weren't my sister, life would be so sad.

  17. 15. Three Sisters We Are And Always Will Be

    I wrote this poem because I've been away from my home and my family for over 32 years because I was in the Navy. Although I've been home to visit, I've missed out on so much. I'm getting ready to go home for my sister's birthdays, which I have never spent any with them. I want them to know how much I really love and miss them. We're planning an overnight trip with just the three of us sisters. We have never spent time together like this. I am so looking forward to this visit.
