" One Sister To Another "
I'd like to take your hand and stroll
along a country road_
We'd kick up dust and side step a
turtle or a flattened toad-
We'd stop along side and pick some
wild green plums-
We'd see two red cars at the same
time and press together our thumbs.
We'd skip over potholes and toss
pebbles along the way-
Anyone who chanced to see us would
be amazed that we are so happy and gay-
All in the light of a bright spring
day-
Sisters we will always be,
Let no one ever doubt_
And sharing things together is what
its all about.
The daffodils would bloom -
and smell of sweet perfume -
We'd call ourselves passing time_
Its a shame it can only happen
in our mind.
