Separated at Birth

I writes 'em as I gets 'em.

although i barely remember you, i
recognize you by
the pattern of pain gathered 'round your eyes.
it's the same as mine.
somewhere, your father and my mother met,
and poems were born,
although we didn't know it at the time.
separated at
birth, we went on our different paths, you with
pa, i with ma, and
i didn't think we'd ever meet again.
and now look at us:
here we are, together once more, as it
should be with twins; come,
sister of the word,
rest, eat, sit down  here and tell me what's been
goin' on with you.

(c) 2006, Karla Dorman.

My father was one of a pair of identical twins who were in an orphange. Their mother gave them up as they would always have one another and she made that emotional decisions to keep them together. I know how important it is having a twin. I'm happy your pe placed these twins together again.
Love,
Susan

Somewhere I read that good poetry is where words sing...
without music. You've given us words and the music of love,
and we know the song. Some of your very best writing, my
good lady. Keep writin' like you see 'em!
