Little Kid Sister.
She was only seven
When she was called to heaven
That little kid sister of mine.
Not your regular girl child
Always laughin',
Runnin' wild,
That little kid sister of mine.
I know the Angel's will love her
Once they can recover
From the mischief,
Of that little kid sister of mine.
Ther'll be tinsell on their Halos
And cow pats between their toes
Knowing that little kid sister of mine.
Their wings'll be brightly coloured
As bright as any rainbow
If I know that little kid sister of mine.
She'll paint the clouds a bright pink,
Make the Milkyway a skate rink,
That little kid sister of mine.
St Peter, he'll roll his eyes
As she chases through the skies
The ever elusive butterflies
That little kid sister of mine.
She'll have them singin' happy songs
Ones that they can all sing along
That little kid sister of mine.
But when she's sleeping
They'll all sigh
How Angelic (is)
That little kid sister of mine.

Beautiful!
This is a sad poem yet it has a thread of sunshine all the way through it Sammy, that is caused by the things you have expressed about this child and the way she affected those around her. I am sure her genuine talent for making people smile, would not change no matter where she was.
A truly beautiful and tender piece of poetry.
Well Done!

Nice.
Wow, that's very sad . . . did she die? I mean, duh, but was it a personal experience or just a touching song? All the same, I liked it, very moving. Nice write. You seem so pro, it's quite intimidating to ammature writers like myself!!
Anyway, cool song. Sweet.

I enjoyed reading this poem. It was sad but happy at the same time. Like reflecting on how she must be in heaven causing all kinds of mischive.. (however you spell that word). I also have a little kid sister. She's not as cute as the one in the poem though. Not when you have to live with her anyway lol. But I still love her. Keep writing! This deserves an applause.

I don't feel the pic works with this piece, but that's separate. I like the repetition of the piece, it plays well in its lyrical form. Not much else to say but that.
A good piece that you have written here.
