Sister

Sister poem Lionel Derbyshire Sister .. sister when in euphoria I ponder on you the bridge you were through hard day's and tough age stage's. The pillows we lumped on.. Dumping your consoling comforts. The memorys of the roughest fences you helped me over to reach offerings and pickings of peach trees which we were hungry to. We fell into trenches and felt like stooges. You would scold me.. And lulabye's we would sing when cleaning our teeth. Toothpaste we shared and the bread we ate after. We had no rules and you let me have the most. Sister.. sister My keeper bodyguard.. Always the most underated in the family. When I was cold You were a jersey and head rest in a pink dress. My parent surrogate My tower My refuge.
