After Visiting Relatives
She has
A room
Dedicated to music.
I have
A notebook
I scribble in
Between taking notes.
She has three
Shiny instruments
The finest you can find.
I have one
Ballpoint pen
That rests eternally
In my pocket.
She has competitions
Every weekend
Concerts every month
Practice with instructors every day.
I have
an hour-long study hall
And one poem
In one school magazine
Once a year.
She has certificates
Lining her wall
And a shelf
Full of trophies.
I have
A cardboard box
That fits in my hand
In which rests
One tiny key
A remnant
Of the only contest
I have ever joined.
Clearly,
She has more
Talent
Than me.
