Sonnet- Sibling-Love Across The Sea

What love entwines two hearts- brother, sister,
Living apart for years and both now old!
A love from India upto Myanmar,
That keeps alive and can never grow cold.

They’ve writ letters by hand over decades,
Informing each other, life’s joys and woes;
Their memories akin the Everglades!
Both over eighty and their life thus goes.

“Aye, blood is thicker than water ” ’tis said.
They pray, advise, exchange all their viewpoints;
While many contemporaries are all dead!
By will-power, these two keep moving joints.
But God is great for they have accomplished,
Thro’ Providence, almost all things they wished.
