A Poem with Extra Love

Twist of Fate
by Matt Yount

This poem was written by a boy who is extremely blessed with his little sister who has a little something extra...

A twist of a fate brought a special gift to my door

How was I to know what God had in store

The gift was wrapped in beauty and filled with love

It was more special than I'd ever dreamed of

At first I was unsure if this was really a gift

But all my doubts faded when I felt my spirit lift

The gift that God gave me was my special little sister

Overflowing with God's light, there's no way I could have missed her

She has brought me nothing but joy and laughter

The two things in life that are most sought after

She sings me songs and brings me to tears

With a smile or a hug she wipes away all my fears

She is more than my sister, she's one of my best friends

Her heart is so pure and her love never ends

She was everything I never expected

She was a gift from God who was specially selected

I love her so much we're each other's biggest fan

Her influence in my life has made me a better man

I wouldn't trade the world for the moments that we've shared

Because without her in my life who knows how I would have faired

Her future is so bright, I can hardly wait

My life has changed forever, thanks to a simple twist of fate.
