This week, we are launching 9 stories written by learners in Duncan, BC. As a special event you can read the stories and hear some of them.

Sisters

by Shayanne

We fight a lot about things so small,
We always laugh when the other falls,
Although we don't always mean what we say we say it anyway,
When one of us makes a mistake the other always has something to say,
We say things when we fight that aren't always right,
You laugh at my amusing antics and comfort my many pains,
Sometimes we fight and don't get along,
For sisters that's right and mostly wrong,
We act like we hate one another,
But our lives would not be the same without each other.
