Week One : Mirror Friends  by Jamila Gavin

When we look in the mirror,

Me and my friend,

I am brown and she is white.

When we look in the mirror,

Me and my friend,

My hair is dark and hers is light.

And my eyes are black as a raven’s wing,

And hers are as blue as a sapphire ring.

She likes chips

And I like rice,

She likes ketchup

And I like spice.

But when we look in the mirror,

Me and my friend

We feel we are the same as same can be,

Though I am brown and she is white,

We could be sisters,

She and me.
