Now I lay my hand on you
And with arms wide open I approach you
As your love of a sweet sister approaches
I am a boy
Not the best, but simple as any other
I am not perfect
But, I am not a bargain
I stand by your side now little sister
As you look up to me
A smile with a gleam in your eye
And long hair for me to brush when you are running late to school
I will honor you like any brother should
I will respect my mother and father
The mistakes any teenager makes are constant
And to not just myself but others
And a little sister to have by my side would be a jewel
Not the hand of the devil could hurt my family
For I will be there
With my 16 year old common look
I may not be the best a person could ask for
But, I know I am the best to receive care from
I will love my family
I will be with my family
Let me be the one to pick you up when you are sad
Little sister
Father
Mother
Family

aww
this is soo good! keep up the writing -
I liked it very much! And Beth would be so proud to have a big brother to look up to, Im sure. She is just out of the typical 8 year old 'boys are icky' phase, and they are cool now. (I think this is mainly cos she has got her first crush on doctor who!) I loved this poem, and I will be sure to show it to Beth. Thankyou for the great entry! xx
