Sitting at the table Reminiscing about the past <br />The journey of their friendship that is unsurpassed <br />Many times have they cried and held each other tight <br />Marriages that had failed, and lovers that took flight <br /> <br />Passing of their parents they were at each others side <br />Giving each the comfort only true friends can provide <br />Hair a little grayer laugh lines cut deep into the skin <br />Still the twinkle in the eye sparks the memories within <br /> <br />Remembering the time they met they bonded right away <br />The vow that they took and kept till this very day <br />Just a pinky promise, a child's pinky swear <br />To be blood sisters through happiness and despair<br /><br />T.James Becker<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/blood-sisters/
