Petal or Pedal

Frilly pastels on Easter morn’

Child resists, child is scorned

Childish behavior

Not like the sisters

Teach ‘m a lesson

Risk ‘m the blisters

One small kid

Two adults overpowering

Kicking and screaming

Ingraining the cowering


They tried every Sunday

Enforcing their dress code

And learned to leave the fight

The ruffles

For the holidays 

Once a week

Was

Far too much of a commitment
