This poem was inspired by the photo above... but I thought I'd wait a couple days to post it so that it would show up on Dana's birthday. Happy birthday, cousin!
Both blond heads shine
With the same sunny glowTwo sets of white teeth
Between matched cupid's bows
These sisters aren't twins--
They might look like it, though
Blue eyes complement
Navy uniforms twain
Freckles and tattoos
Will let you ascertain
Who's stationed in Virginia
In earthquake and hurricane
And who's Master at Arms
On a base in Bahrain
But one thing is sure:
Both Dana and Jean
Are pretty and smart,
With wits that are keen.
