To a Special Sister
A Window to Look Through
There is No Friend like a Sister
A Very Special Sister
To a Special Sister
A sister is one of the nicest things that can happen to anyone.
She is someone to laugh with and share with,
to work with and join in the fun.
She is someone who helps in the rough times
and knows when you need a warm smile.
She is someone who will quietly listen
when you just want to talk for awhile.
A sister is dear to you always,
for she is someone who is always a part
of all the favorite memories
that you keep very close to your heart.

A Window To Look Through
Dedicated to mothers and daughters and the unique and special love they have and will continue to share.
She watches through her window,
her little girl at play
Memories flood back to her childhood,
of her yesterdays
As she tucks her gift into bed,
and kisses her precious face
She says a prayer of protection,
"Lord keep my child safe."
And as days turn months into years,
she sees her little girl grow
She begins to realize that a time will come,
the time when she must let go.
Suddenly she hears a gentle voice-- saying,
"No greater love is this,
Than what you've done for your little girl,
go seal it with a kiss."
"Honey I want to kiss your face,
but I know I can't by phone
While looking through your bedroom window,
I began to feel alone."
"So many days through this very window,
I'd watch you laugh and play
And I can almost see you tucked in bed,
on those nights we'd talk and pray."
"Mom," her daughter uttered,
"There's something I want to say...
You may not know how many times,
I saw you watch me play."
"That window that you're looking through,
is the same one God looked in
He saw you by my bed each night,
when you'd tenderly tuck me in."
"So mom please don't feel all alone,
you know I'll always be there...
Just like God is with you now,
no matter the time, or place or where."
Her mother paused and then replied,
"Sweetheart I know you're right...
You're grown, married and have a child,
that you now tuck in at night."
"Mom, I better go now,
I have some things I better do."
Her mom replied, "I know it dear,
you've got a window to look through."

There is no Friend like a Sister
There's no better friend than a sister -
There's no one more loyal and true . . .
and even when sisters are different . . .
their likeness come shining through!
Perhaps it's a family resemblance that strengthens the bond they share . . .
or maybe it's just that sisters live life with a similar flair!
A sister remembers your collegehood -
She knows more than you will admit
of times you were Little Miss Perfect . . .
and times you gave others a fit!
She's seen you in some situations
when silence just wouldn't suffice . . .
and managed somehow to get by with those sisterly words of advice!
And when some encouragement's needed . . .
a sister will always be there . . .
to listen . . .
to laugh . . .
or to lean on . . .
to comfort, or simply to care.
There's no one who's more in your corner . . .
and no one you're more grateful to.
There's no better friend than a sister . . .
and no better sister than you.
from "There Is No Friend Like A Sister"
by Mary Engelbreit
A Very Special Sister
For many years we've shared our lives
One roof we once lived under
Sometimes we laughed, sometimes we cried
Through winter storms and thunder
The younger years have faded fast
We've gone our separate ways
But through all time our friendship lasts
Our bond in life remains
As summer brings the happy times
The autumn winds will whisper
A closer friend I'd never find
Than the one I call my Sister.
Vernon, 1985
