                                                                            I have a little sister

                                                                         Who is turning 37 today

                                                        As you can see she isn’t so little anymore

                                                          But she still affects me in a very big way

                                                          We used to fight when we were younger

                                                            We just couldn’t seem to get along

                                                                  But as we began to get older

                                                         Our relationship began to become strong

                                                              Once when I was out of the country

                                                         She sent a letter dedicating a song to me

                                                        She said I was the wind beneath her winds

                                                                In herself I had helped her to believe

                                                                   I was in the pool when I read it

                                                       And as the words of the song flowed in my head

                                                             Tears dripped from my eyes to the water

                                                                And a wave of her love for me spread

                                                                      Since then we have never fought

                                                            Each other’s biggest fans we have become

                                                                         “I believe in you and I love you!

                                                              Between us is the message now daily drummed

                                                           Dedicated to my wonderful little sister on her birthday

                                                                               by her very grateful big brother
