SiblingsSisters and brothers, a curious pair,
Sometimes they love, and sometimes they glare.

Giggles erupt over secret jokes,
Then squabbles brew like...

When Summer Is Gone
Alas, my dear, we must away!
From Summer homes upon the Bay.
To winter in our warmer nests,
In Southern climes, which suit us best.
Your sister's grand debut went swell!
Gentlemen flock where ‘ere we dwell.
Invitations, voguish ballrooms,
Soon...

FirecrackersFirecrackers will ever crack,
And you will always have my back.
Do you think, when we took that car,
We might have gone a bit too far?
I don't think when you drove that loop,

Birthdays
Birthdays were always shared.
Two cakes sat mid-table,
‘Happy Birthday’ was sung
with two names instead of one.

having a sister the same age,
always being labeled more
as a composite,...

My Sister and IMy sister and I are as different
As spinach and blueberry pie,
Yet together we laugh,
Which reduces, by half,
All the ways our distinctions apply.
Even now, in New York for a visit,
Where the weather is brutally hot,
She, a...

My Sister is a FussbudgetMy sister is a fussbudget
I am shocked.
Why do you call her that? I ask.
She worries about everything.
She is fussy about everything.
Like what? I asked.
She fusses over recipes, they have to be put in an order.

But, she never could make a garden grow; like stars, losing jade glitter.

Each wound I have suffered in my life so far
Has taken so long to form a battle scar
But what doesn't kill me, they say, will make me stronger still
And every wound I suffer will eventually...

UnfinishedSunlight spills
onto the hardwood,
seeping through a crack
of the hallway’s last door.
Steps echoing heartbeats,
click, click; click, click,
a building crescendo
like coming thunder.
A hesitant nudge
spreads the door's gap,
releasing an ominous creak
with a surge of sun.
The thick silence
swallows the...
