About My Brother and Sister

"About My Brother And Sister" —Mackenzie, 11

Could you be a little nicer?
Could you share a little more?
Could you knock, could you knock three times
Before you open the door?

Could you clean up all your messes
And hang up your princess dresses?
Don't sneak up from behind and scare me
And don't embarass me

North, south
East or west
Sometimes you're a pest
And sometimes you're the best

Could you be nice and surprise me?
Have fun swimming in the pool
Play some games and watch some TV
You're so nice when you're not cruel

Could you help me with the dishes?
These would be my only wishes
Could you find ways to include me
When in public or alone?

North, south
East or west
Sometimes you're a pest
And sometimes you're the best
