Mastering english grammar, Compound sentences, Book 5, Moeller D., 2021.

    Welcome to Book 5: Compound Sentences, a book that teaches four simple ways to join two sentences together.
This e-book is a study of the second of the four sentence types—the compound sentence.
In Book 4 of this series, we learned that sentences are built upon the backs of subjects and verbs. Here in Book 5 we take that understanding of what makes simple sentences and build upon it.

Semicolons Between Two Mirror-Image Sentences.
Previously we learned that a semicolon can create a compound sentence by connecting two closely related sentences.

The idea of closely related, however, is a vague one. It is likely that any two sentences that appear in a sequence of sentences can be considered closely related. After all, if they weren’t closely related, they probably wouldn’t be adjacent to one another.

The idea of closely related leaves the judgment up to the writer. If you—as the writer—believe that two sentences are more closely related than normal, you are perfectly justified in joining them with a semicolon instead of separating them with a period and a capital letter.

However, there is a situation in which using a semicolon is more obligatory and far less a matter of subjective opinion. When two sentences share the same sentence pattern and some of the same words, the close relationship of those two sentences demands a semicolon. We can call such sentences mirror-image sentences.
