     Nice tale of sibling rivalry, and it's not limited to same sex.
Our two fight like cat and dog and there's eight years between them.
All the things you portray here have happened to me, both with our children and with my own sister.
Brought back many memories now that they're both grown up and sis is far away.
Thank you.

     That's a very interesting idea to include several poems into one entry. Maybe I could try that...save some credits. Lol. Of course, the topics would have to be similar.
I loved the emotions and how each one varied. I liked the titles as well, as they fit perfectly with the poems.
Very well done! + Report this comment |  |

     Very well thought out and written. I, too, have a sister that I seem to have lost touch with- or were we ever really in touch? I'm not sure. Maybe I should give her a call...
Good job! + Report this comment |  |

     I did not understand this until I read the comments and then I kind of got it. But it still was a little out there. But this was a okay poem-ish so good job. + Report this comment |  |

     My reaction to this poem was to imagine ways the stanzas applied to my own brother and sister, in which case I felt very connected to this poem. It didnt have a traditional structure or rhythm, but in this case that seems like a perfect choice. Well done + Report this comment |  |

I've a younger sister. We used to fight like cats and dogs (I was the cat and I was the dog too) and all for no reason. There was no rivalry too. But that was how we were. Your poem reminded me of those years. + Report this comment |  |

     I am new.
Came here because I had seen you on other's pages.
Never had a sister, so will not comment. It is beyond my imagination.
But I like your style.
Will now move to another of your things.
Kind regards
