I'm Erin's middle sister, Yella Rose. I post things over atwww.daughterofjudah.blogspot.com. Today's post is supposed to be a guest post, so that's why I'm here instead of on my own blog. For today's post on Erin's blog I wrote a special poem.
{Erin and I}
There never could be another pair
Like my sister Erin and me.
Not even Beth and Josephine March.
Not even Jane and Lizzie.
For Erin and I are different.
We bring diff'rent parts to our story
Because she and I are so unique
From our feet to our crowning glory.
She wears a seven, and I a five,
In shoe sizes, not in dresses.
She tries new styles while I try to match.
She has straight and I've curly tresses.
She has opinions and speaks her mind.
I have opinions but hide them.
I was born in winter, and she in spring.
But we have some things of the same.
For instance, we both have Jesus
In our hearts and I hope on our minds.
We both like the Waltons and Christy.
We both have our dad's hazel eyes.
My favorite thing about us, though
Is that bitterness never stays.
We'll fight about something, argue a bit,
Then both go our separate ways.
In an hour or so we're together
Horsing around as of old.
No words are said of forgiveness,
But in each our hearts it is told,
That we have forgiven each other.
Life's too short to stay mad.
We move on and then we forget it.
Both of us so very glad.
That's my favorite thing about sisters;
That they realize life is so short.
So make all the memories you can
And don't waste your time with remorse.
So Erin and I are unique, I say,
We're not sisters like others.
Because I am Erin's and Erin is mine,
And Erin and I are each other's.
