Sisters are Like a Summer's Day



Canova: The Three Graces
Photographer, Mik Thorpe 1999


Sisters are like a summer's day
you wouldn't dream of changing;
then suddenly, thunderstorms at 3:00
leaving twigs and branches strewn about,
but flowers exquisitely fresher, taller,
more vibrant because of the rain; then
the perfection of late afternoon and twilight when
the sun sinks low and gold and mauve change the 
sky again so that you could cry over such a 
wondrous, changing, beautiful day which leaves
you aching for another day just like it.

  1. Beautifully written and so dead on the love and nourishment of a relationship of a sister!
