Sisters…

By Eliza Schneider-Green


Sisters are like flowers growing side-by-side,
Playing and laughing,
on bikes they will ride,
Through years will slip past,
Their friendship will last,
Sisters are like flowers growing side-by-side,

Gossiping, shopping and brushing their hair,
A lovely companion who’ll always be there,
For you in your time of need,
One who will follow and one who will lead,
Gossiping, shopping and brushing their hair,

Sisters are wonderful lovable friends,
Fighting a battle then making amends,
Able to talk about difficult choices,
Using their luminous, lovable voices,
Sisters are wonderful lovable friends,

Poetry...

Greetings - It's been a while since I've written anything for the blog and I'm sorry about that. Lately I've been spending my time at ballet (we've started rehearsing for the spring show). I've also been writing piles of poetry (don't ask me why). I sometimes will write a piece of poetry and then read it to my cat to see his or her reaction (they normally either walk away or stare at me until they get bored). Lately I've had cabin fever and I can't wait until summer - I've tried to get my summer clothes together but it doesn't make me feel any better when it's 42 degrees outside. I've been dreaming of lounging outside on a hot summer's day, sipping lemonade and ready a Vogue, but I'm afraid that it'll be months before that dream will come true. In the mean time, I can snuggle up in my blanket, sip hot chocolate and write poetry.
