Writing a poem on self actuating subjects like natural beauty and heart wrenching tragedies seems to be much easier act but taking a simple event of routines of one's life and interweaving it with the hidden feelings and emotions to make a poem out of it is a difficult job. This poem I feel falls into that class. I liked the subtlety of feelings in this poem very much because I could imagine my own reaction to such an unexpected arrival at my door.
The poem seemingly presenting an ordinary event actually tells lot more about the isolated world of many and it is artistically revealed by the lines :

"she loved the ribeye steak
(we fortunately had a spare one in the freezer)
Our mood was so much better after this. "

There is no mushiness of sympathy seeking and yet it depicts the joy of the unexpected association of one's dear sibling.

Beautifully told. It was wonderful that your sister came to visit. Such things can improve a person's mood considerably. Funny about your sister being in motor gear and having a hard time getting it off. If you're up for ribeye steak, you're surely doing better. Nice storytelling tone in this. judi

A real life story While I was reading I had a feeling that
I'm together with you and your sister.
My mood is much better now.

HI! robina. Isn't it just lovely when a beloved member of the family drop in out of the blue., especially if they have not visited for a while?
Sounds like you had an afternoon of chatter and catchup, a great way to spend time until dinner. I'm pleased for both of you. wiljacro.

Thank you for sharing your experiences with us here. It's so nice to be visited unexpectedly by the our beloved family member or a friend in a time of great need for fellowship. And I think you really needed it at this particular time. And as always with healthy relationships and time well spent with others we get better spiritually and psychologically. thank you again, and god bless.
