Sisters Sisters share a closeness no one else can understand... A sister's always there to give a hug or lend a hand Sisters are the best friends in the whole wide world, it's true... And that friendship is a blessing that lasts a lifetime through.


No Friend Like A Sister
by Christina Rossetti

For there is no friend like a sister 
in calm or stormy weather; 
to cheer one on the tedious way, 
to fetch one if one goes astray, 
to lift one if one totters down, 
to strengthen whilst one stands.  


For My Sister
Sisters are special
from young ones to old.
God gave me a sister 
more precious than gold.

We shared many secrets, 
the same mom and dad, 
we shared lots of good times, 
don't think of the bad. 

Our memories we'll cherish, 
with love without end,
I'm glad you're my sister, 
I'm glad you're my friend.

This crying and spying yound

	Would anyone like to buy a 
      slightly used big brother?
	Even if you have one now, 
      trade him for another.
	He will help you with the chores 
      and he's really clean.
	The only problem is sometimes 
      he can be so mean.

	He will always pick you up 
      when you take a fall. 
	And he's good at showing 
      you how to catch a ball. 
	He always tells these funny jokes 
      and does this crazy dance.
	Hey wait, he sounds like a pretty nice guy.
      Let's give him one more chance.
                                              

	Our brother's not for sale, 
      not for any price.
	Our brother's not for sale, 
      we guess he will suffice.
	We love to hug him,  
      we love to bug him, he's really rather nice.
	Our brother's not for sale, not for any price
