Rakhi poems represent a way of expressing the love and affection that both brothers and sisters have for each other. Rakhi or Raksha Bandhan is a very popular festival of India. Since India is known to the world for its cultural heritage, Rakhi poems constitute a part of that heritage. Rakhi Poems demonstrate the bond that exists between a brother and a sister. This brings them closer once again. In the busy day to day life one hardly finds time to look after the brother or the sister. But Rakhi reminds them of the vows that they had once made to each other. Rakhi poems strengthen this bond between the brother and the sister.

Brother and Sister – by George Eliot
I cannot choose but think upon the time
When our two lives grew like two buds that kiss
At lightest thrill from the bee's swinging chime,
Because the one so near the other is.
He was the elder and a little man
Of forty inches, bound to show no dread,
And I the girl that puppy-like now ran,
Now lagged behind my brother's larger tread.
I held him wise, and when he talked to me
Of snakes and birds, and which God loved the best,
I thought his knowledge marked the boundary
Where men grew blind, though angels knew the rest.
If he said "Hush!" I tried to hold my breath;
Wherever he said "Come!" I stepped in faith.
Here's To My Brother
Here's to my brother
Remember every day
No matter what I've said
Here's what I'd like to say
I will always love you
Be with you till the end
When no one else is around
I will be your friend
I love my brother
and I always will
I'm proud to be your brother
that's how I feel
And someday when we're far away
And the miles keep us apart
I'm gonna whisper
I love my brother
And you'll know it in your heart
