My Sister -- a Poem for Her -- for a dVerse Prosetics and Friday Writings
Little Sister,
When you are old, well pretty old
old enough to drive like a Senior
one who should be off the road,
I'll get you a dog like a lady I knew
I hear now that you don't drive far
and are staying off the major roads
like highways that run though town
And freeways too, those can kill you
Driving for me is still a challenge
challenge to lead the traffic, up front
you might try my secret, hide keys
car keys, where they won't be found
No disaster getting lost, the dog can help
Follow him, he can take you home
Note: This isn't true, neither of us has reached this stage although we are both elderly. Many our age have. Oh yes, there isn't a dog either. You can read your fill about her on my other blog (click it).

who wants us to write of our sibling(s). I only have sister Lois, she is five years younger than I am. This is NOT about her nor me nor having a dog (YET)
