Two Poems from our Sisters Poetry Collection

 
 
BIG, MIDDLE AND LITTLE
   
Author: Lee Emmett
   
Poem:
BIG, MIDDLE AND LITTLE
   
  big one wears pink
and little one yellow
the middle one blue
like strange bedfellows
mother discriminates
according to code-colour
each one has attributes
beauty, brains, valour
white turn-down socks
shoes patent leather
so sweet in photograph
standing close together
holding hands nicely
just as requested
three young sisters
by life soon tested
during teenage years
tarred and feathered
buffeted by rivalry
still sibling-tethered

SIBLINGS
   
Author: Lee Emmett
   
Poem: SIBLINGS
   

she’ll always be little sister
there’s no way around it
but he doesn’t need to step
in and do anything about it
nowadays they see each other
as extra special close buddies
the pressure of responsibility
no longer relationship muddies
both work in the city and they
often meet for meal or drink
share news and offer support
hear what the other one thinks
in some ways they’re different
as silver moon and sun of gold
but they’ve found new closeness
enjoy life more as it unfolds
very gratifying for mother to see
two siblings growing together
standing side by side to help
through the roughest weather
