Two Poems from our Sisters Poetry Collection

 
 
MY OTHER WHOLE
   
Author: D Braddock
   
Poem:
MY OTHER WHOLE
   
  My Other Whole

From the time I was born
I had a clone
Six minutes separating us
Same clothes
Same hair
Same smile
Same cute shy smile
For eight years
We were the definition
The epitome
The greatest example
Of twins…

As young girls
It was a struggle
Just to say each other’s names
Problem solved
I called her “Bo”
She called me…
“Bo”
Also
We became the same
To us
We were

As I grew
So did the questions
On the outside
I nod yes
With a grin
Yet on the inside
I wanted to say
With a sarcastic tone
“For the fifteen thousandth time…”
But I refrain

Like a broken record
I answer…
Because being a twin
Them
Looking on the outside in…
Equals curiosity
Because what they see
Is the definition
The epitome
Of twins

In case you were wondering….
We fight
We don’t always love being twins
We don’t switch glasses
Or switch classes
For there’s no need
And I know
I know
You wish you were a twin

We hit the double digits
I stepped out
I wanted to be different
Different clothes
Different hair
Different interests
Same smile
Same cute shy smile

We’ve become
On the outside
What we always were
On the inside
But that doesn’t stop the connection
We think alike
We simultaneously speak

I’ve learned
Not only do I have a twin
I have a teacher
A friend
My worst critic
And a second name…

From the time I was born
I had a sister….
My other whole
The definition
The epitome
The greatest example

I am
The same cute shy smile
I am “Bo”
I am
My sister’s twin

Sisters In the Spotlight
   
Author: Deanna Dilley
   
Poem: Sisters In the Spotlight
   

Sandy hair bouncing on her shoulders
Amy runs the track day after day
Heavy breathing finishes her run
Gallons of juice at the finish line

Ash blonde hair in a similar style
Kayla splashes through water
Beating her opponents
Towel wrapped around her
She waits for her next race

Sandy hair tied in a bun
Meg races across the court
Making baskets
One Two Three
Her team is undefeated

Three sisters a year apart
All very athletic
Have one similar dream
Be the best they can be
