Just Lucky I Guess
~~~
I don’t know how I would have found you
What planets would have needed to align
What crazy crossing of paths or plain kismet
The variables are impossible to define
~~~
Some stroke of luck or blessing by chance
Some good karma returned in kind
Fate brings to me a kindred heart
The kind most improbable to find
~~~
I have not always felt this lucky
Or blessed to have you in my life
And with all the love that I confess
We have had our moments of strife
~~~
But family you are, a sister truly loved
Yet how lucky can one man possibly be
That in this life so undeserving
I got a sister who fits perfectly
~~~

what a lovely ode to your sister – she will love this
Thank you, Beth! Have a great week!
This is such a beautiful way to honor your sister. Beautifully written, my friend!
Thank you, professor!
My beloved brother, I feel unworthy of your words and certainly not sure I always live up to them. Our relationship is one of a very few in which I simply have no regrets – not even for the bad times – because you have nudged me in your own way to look at myself through eyes other than my own. Whether it was mere luck, or predestined fate, or even Karma, I never forget how blessed I am to have you as my family and as my true best friend. I love you so much!
You’re the best sister ever! Love you!
You and your sister are both lucky to have each other.
True, so true. Thank you, Geoff! Hoping you are well and happy!
What a sweet brother you are! I bet she’s pretty special too. I’ve always enjoyed reading the responses of you and your sister on your blog.
She is one of a kind, Pete. Thank you!
What a beautifully moving tribute to your sister. You both are lucky to have each other.. this poem celebrates your sibling hood.
We are lucky to have each other. Thank you, Yasmin!
Oh, how sweet! ❤️
Thank you, Bridgette! I have a wonderful sister.
