Shiela and Shirley


Shiela shrugs her shivering shoulders, Shows she’s shunning her short shower; Shy she is, but so shocking for Shirley to see Shouting at her, “I should swim in the sea!” Shirley’s shrill sound says, “No shampoo?” Shoes off and shades on, sisters should go… Sheila and Shirley swim swiftly side by side Shouting, “Salty and spooky are the sea tides!” Shirley and Shiela shake, swim, shudder, shake Shiela says, “Sea tides shut and shift our shape!” Suddenly, sisters are off without slippers on the sunshine, Sharing shovel, scoping sandy seashells at the shoreline.
