here are my sisters
laughing and smiling
surrounded by meadows
embraced by the sun
purple the loosestrife
tall above green grass
abundant white cowslip
as years have moved on
thankful am i
the eldest of siblings
the river flows downstream
now what of our dreams
some have proved fruitful
some best forgotten
some may still happen
we’re not out of steam
regardless the weather
we stick close together
in times when we’re happy
or days filled with sad
the lessons we’ve learned
we can not be broken
we’re here for each other
through good times and bad

Thank you Thad. Have a great Sunday.
Hello Cassie - feels like a very attractive walk.
But how many sisters? A bus load? Wouldn’t want the upright residents of Marlow to worry that they were being invaded….lol
Not a bus load, just the three of us having a day out in Marlow. Hardly an invasion:) Thank you Dave for stopping by.
Could have been a busload of Nuns, come to save the citizens of Marlow from their sins...lol
Oh I forgot to mention, all three of us are patriots 🏴🏴🏴😀.Have a great day Dave.
It is true that we age with time, but we must remain optimistic, as we still have much to achieve. I feel a beautiful bond between sisters, untouched, not worn nor torn by time. I can assure you that this is a great gift from God.
Beautiful words and beautiful feelings.
Saleh, I count my blessings. I am very fortunate to have a special bond with my sisters. Thank you for such a warm review.
The perfect title to front or to head the most perfect of pages .. Truly terrific Cassie and my word, then some .. Neville

Good words Cassie, the closeness of your siblings is so important in our loies.
Andy
I am fortunate Andy to have a close relationship with both my sisters. Something for me to celebrate. Thank you for stopping by.
Awe, not every family is this way, how beautiful dearest Cassie. 🌹
Dear Teddy, I am blessed with having two lovely sisters. I know how lucky I am when other families don’t have such close relationships. Thank you so much. Have a wonderful Sunday. 🌹
a wonderful story
beautifully written Cassie.
one to fave for sure.
Thank you so much Melvin for your very generous review. Have a great Sunday.
I loved the hidden metaphor of "abundant white cowslip" denoting age as if white hair. The passing of time does not dull the bond.
Thank you so much Soren. I love what you said about the hidden metaphor. I wasn’t that clever lol. Made me smile.
I was raised to believe Family came first, always. That has worked well for me seven decades now. Nice work.
Thank you so much Dan. Yes, I was raised the same way. I appreciate your visit. Have a great day.
