Far Away No More
She was my far away sister
the cousin who I rarely reminisced.
Once in a while, she fell into
my life and flew away in a trice,
like a bird who hurtled away
from a trap.
In the waka waka season of
soccer, she landed yet again
by accident, a twist of fate.
We nestled in front of the
home stadium, screaming and
cheering for our favourite team.
As balls took wings to the
goal, we became sisters
and best friends from heart.
Years have passed, yet
there's not a minute
that I do not reminisce her,
my far away sister, far away no more.
<This was a poem I wrote in the last FIFA season. I post it today after Germany's first win for my sister who watched the match with me through skype from the other side of the world!!!!!!!! You are awesome, dear sister!
