Brother and Sister
by D.J. YOON
Brother of 5th grade and Sister of 2nd grade
On a day when naked tree branches
Shaking violently
Blizzard blowing
Over a mountain pass
To school
A long
Ten-mile journey
Only one pair
Of fur gloves
Brother wears it on his left hand
Sister wears it on her right hand
Brother's right hand and sister's left hand
Without fur gloves
Holding each other tightly
Putting them in brother's pocket
Step by step
As they walk briskly
The school is seen
Before they know it
Old smokes from the classroom stove
Faintly rising plump-plump
오누이
-윤동재
초등학교 5학년 오빠와 2학년 누이
옷 벗은 나뭇가지가
세게 흔들리고
눈보라까지 휘날리는 날
산 고개 넘어
학교까지
먼
십 리 길
한 켤레밖에 없는
털장갑
오빠는 왼손
누이는 오른손에 끼고
털장갑 끼지 않은
오빠 오른손과 누이 왼손
서로 꼭 잡아
오빠 호주머니 속에 넣고
한 걸음 한 걸음
힘차게 걸어가다 보면
어느새 학교가 보입니다
교실 난로 연기가 몽실몽실 피어오릅니다
Appreciation Review 感想
This is a heartwarming and evocative poem that beautifully captures the bond between siblings facing adversity together.
Through simple yet powerful imagery, the poet paints a touching picture of a brother and sister enduring a harsh winter journey to school, sharing a single pair of fur gloves in a gesture of love and sacrifice.
The repetition of short lines mirrors their steady steps, emphasizing their resilience and unity.
The final image of rising smoke from the school stove brings a sense of warmth and comfort, making it both moving and memorable for young readers.
