You taught me butterfly kisses
That dragonflies have four wings
You've shown me how to apply makeup
Tons of other silly little things.
I've often thought of what life would be like.
If we'd been raised in different ways
Would we still cherish the way things are,
Or would I not still know you today?
You've been a sideline player,
A teacher, always a best friend.
My love for you has never changed
Like a circle it never ends.
You've shared in my misfortunes
Turned me from wrong to right.
We've cried on each other's shoulders.
You've been my laughter, my light.
These words seem so very simple,
For a friendship, a love like ours.
From little girl to grown up woman
Transformation written in stars.

awesome
Wow. This is amazing. It shows that no matter what our parents love us. I think this is a great way to express your feelings.

Aww. This was extremely sweet. It reminded me of the relationship I had with both of my sisters since they were so much older than me. They were like mothers to me, even though my relationship with my mom was great too.
You really brought out the feelings deep inside with this. I bow down before you.
Don't ever quit writing. It would be a shame if you did.

Warm and Touching
Yes, this poem filled me with warmth to read it and picture a woman and girl-child side by side over a vanity, taking on the daunting task to put on mascara.
