Premium MemberFalling off a Ladder in Corydon Iowa

my identical twin sister is well-loved in a small town
she has been a nurse to most of the inhabitants
Corydon, Iowa where the average age is 72.
They all ran to her house when she fell off a ladder.

I am not sure what got them there
A scream? A thud? Or inquisitive neighbors looking out windows
But the ambulance pulled up and could barely get through the throng
There are 2800 people in Corydon
Most of them were surrounding my sister

Falling off a ladder in a small town
Different than falling off a ladder anywhere else


Premium Memberwe are great doormats

she always wants to mollify, placate and please.
I roll my eyes, wondering if she is but a tease.
No one loves being more than a doormat than me and my twin.
It is a game we learned early, taught to us by overbearing kin.

Premium Memberdrove 800 miles this week

my car rarely leaves the driveway since I retired one year ago today
She drove four hundred miles on Wednesday
Another four hundred miles this morning
That is six hundred and fifty miles more than she’s driven in six months
It was worth it
I got to celebrate my birthday with my identical twin.
I live in Kansas City, Kansas
She lives in Iowa City, Iowa
It is not an easy trip.
But worth it.

Premium MemberTwin Sisters



Mendy and Nancy are twin sisters
With slight difference at each other
Mendy is quite dark and taller
Nancy is white and height’s shorter
They share things and toys together.

Girls clip roses on their curly hair
Wear sweet smiles and dresses with such  flair
Both enjoy drinking hot chocolate
After eating their foods on small plate
When they go to school, they’re never late.

Premium MemberWe Gemini Twins

Gemini
the twins
mercurial
creative
wildly enthusiastic
my identical twin and I
both dancing to our own flutes
born in May
living up to our star sign
in opposite directions


Premium MemberSisters Having a Great Time

Sisters in looks only, but they shared a laugh.
It was witch-like, head-thrown-back, quite a gaff.
Their husbands did not see their twinship much anymore.
One lived in the Keys, the other near Mount Rushmore.

But when they got together they had such a great time!
They could finish each other’s sentences, sometimes in rhyme.
There is nothing like a sister, especially an identical twin.
Being together in solidarity was a comfort, truly a win.

Premium MemberI Have Rose Gold Hair

I have rose gold hair my sister said.
What color is that? I asked. Is it red?
I was hoping it was not, for she is my twin.
Looking exactly alike all our life has not been a win.

It is like rose gold jewelry, if you have seen that.
Some came from North Dakota from the county Platt.
I had not seen it at all, but was relieved to find
That her rose gold hair looked nothing like mine.

Premium MemberMy Lucille Ball Purse

My twin sister Carolyn is wildly creative.
She has made me a Lucille Ball purse.
It is fabulous; I love it!

There is a cartoon montage of Lucy all over it.
Many recognizable faces on various episodes of I Love Lucy.
I carried it around to several stores today.

Strangers begged to know where I got it.
I could have set up shop and sold these.
It’s a computer bag, not a purse my sister told me when I called her.
I smiled at the predictability of my twin.

Premium MemberFame and Fortune

Fame and fortune
     she did not seek

   For she was humble
     she stayed meek

   Her twin brother
     chased a star

   That did her brother's
     life devour

   So, please adopt
     his sister’s view

   Let fame and fortune
     ~ come to you

Premium MemberIdentical Twin Sisters

twins
labelled
misleading
identical
different ideas
diverse ideals
yes they live in the  same house
they do not have the same sister
a liberal and a Republican
no two people are exactly alike

Premium MemberWatching You Without Me

Once upon a time
You were here with me 
We were two of us
We were side by side
Wished upon a star

I will ask God 
To hold you tight,
Give you a kiss
for me, at night

Reflections
Your spirit
I can see,

you my
sister

Premium MemberIs There Really a Cat In There

We teachers have the summer off.
So far I have been everywhere, done everything. 
I’ve only been out a few seconds, and I have packed in the fun!
I gave up cleaning the whole house.
Even if we were having Mrs. Snoopy – my twin sister.
The kitchen counters gave me a marvelous idea.
Why not box it all up, and clean the counters?
I could dig this stuff out after they are gone.
After I piled seventeen boxes in the bedroom I had a new thought.
What if she looks in there? And of course she will.
In about three seconds I had this sign on the door “Please do not let cat out.”
My sister asked me several times “Is there really a cat in there?”
We are both allergic to cats, but she knows that I have one anyway.
I said “Go ahead and look,” but she never did.

Premium MemberPrank of Uncle Bill

My Uncle Bill thought it would be hilarious and fun.
To warn a fellow merchant of a shoplifter - Miss Gun.
The employees followed her all over the store that day.
They reported that she left quickly, as if she was running away.

She came outside and we could see she was in a snit.
She had a red face, and brown eyes were flashing quite a bit.
What is wrong? Someone asked and Bill could not stop his grin.
I noticed it, and so did my unobserving usually ten-year-old twin. 

Our Aunt Marge was in a horrible mood when to home we returned.
Those employees followed me the whole time! She was truly burned. 
Bill kept laughing but did not tell the rest of us of his prank.
Until Marge left. She was the oldest sister, and could be a real crank.

Premium MemberIt Feels Like Love

I have a best friend
A look alike
An admirer
She has my face
Her freckles, her laugh, her mannerisms are also mine.
People asked  me what having an identical twin feels like.
It feels like love, I say.
