For Sale!

One sister for sale!
One sister for sale!
One crying and spying young sister for sale!
I’m really not kidding,
So who’ll start the bidding?
Do I hear the dollar?
A nickel?
A penny?
Oh, isn’t there, isn’t there, isn’t there any
One kid that will buy this old sister for sale,
This crying and spying young sister for sale?

-Shel Silverstein

Happy birthday to the most bestest sister (and aunt) in the whole wide world, even though she tried to sell me many years ago.

  1. Thank you Ashley! "I'm really not kidding" but I would never sell you. Have to love a 5th grade poem recital to keep the laughs going and memories building. All because I could not remember all of the ice cream flavors for that poem. Hugs!
