To My Sassy Sister Poem by Deborah Dalton

To My Sassy Sister

Rating: 5.0


You can tell by her
walk
You can hear it in her
talk
It glows in her
face
It shows in her
taste

The refinement of time
that turned the
cane
into sugar

Education
Cultivation
Sophistication
Even her
Deliberation
are her
attributes that are enhanced
through time

No longer a
lady in waiting
But a woman
awakening

Yes this is a
poem
To my sassy sister

Her everlasting
beauty
Forces me to
smile in pride
Put some kick
in my stride
No, I am not ashamed to say it
My love for her
I will never
hide
