Undivided Unity

We cousins looked forward to our summer holidays which were full of fun Our barbaric guffaws were louder than the joys of any battle won One was always on the run while another chased him with a water gun Heroism was on the footloose, with many ghost chilling yarns being spun Arguments, fights, boasting, was our forte as each refused to be outdone Pantries ran out of stock as the food we gormandized was more than a tonne The swimming pool was but ours, and we refused invasion by anyone We stood undivided, if a glass had broken when we had hit and run We were punished together, sheepish grins at smuggled food for we were one! 18 syllables per line June 14, 2016 For Laura Loo
