Analysis of The Jackson Twins: We Are Kindergarteners
Steven Bowman 1997 (Voorhees Township, NJ)
This story takes place five years,
The Jackson Twins begin school.
Starting them as kindergarteners,
Maxie and Rosie try to keep cool.
Delphine and Hunter are in tears,
Hoping they shall have a fun day.
Maxie overhears there are bullies,
Rosie will protect him in any way.
The Jackson Twins overprotective,
Just hoping they will have most fun.
Looking out for bullies unpredicted,
If not they’ll be the ones who’s won.
Then they had fun on their first day,
Welcoming home from kindergarten.
Rosie protected Maxie in every way,
Stopping all bullies from hurting him.
