[F O U R L E A F C L O V E R]

Dear brother,
I write this to you
because I’d like to know things.

I found no other way of contacting you,
so I hope that
this poem finds you well.

The year is almost over-
we’ve grown so much, haven’t we?
Did you see what I accomplished?

Even though I don’t think of you often
I still want to thank you
for always looking after me.

I know I wouldn’t be here without you.
You support me in everything I do.
Again, I just want to thank you.

Are you proud of me?
I don’t know if you’ve read, but
this year has been one of the worst.

I always kept going- and look where it got me!
Can you see how much I’ve grown?
Are you proud of me?

What about you, though?
What have you been up to?
Did you go to all these parties?

Did you get that car? Do you have your driver’s license?
What are your hobbies? Do you have a job?
Did you find a girl? Does she like me?

I’m sorry- I’m just really curious!
Text me back ASAP.
You’ll find me in my dreams.

Goodbye, I’ll await your response
I’ll listen to your whisper
Sincerely,
your sister.
