Monday's Child #41 - Three Sisters

Illustration by : Florence Edith Storer


Three Sisters
Dressed in Sunday Best
Sitting in the Field
Looking to the West

Winds Gusting
Sashes All Askew
Hair Flying Here and Yon
The Bonnets Blowing Too

Time Slipped Away
Enjoying Summer Sun
Late For Mothers Luncheon
They Had Better Run
