Happy 40th sister!


i love
that
i had
a
name first


i love
that
your footprints
were
on my face


i love
that
our nickname
was
the cackos


i love
that
we had
a
tree house and a creek and a path


i love
that
we became
friends
in college


i love
that
chris asked
your
ring size

i love
that
you gave
us
zoe and zane

i love
that
your poetry
is
in motion


i love
that
you love
me

  5. I've felt the same way about my sister. And btw, I've always loved that picture of you and Carol.
