SOME AMAZING POETRY FROM YEAR 5 KIDS

Poem About Sisters

Sisters are rather stupid creatures

Which come with many annoying features

When you want quiet they read aloud

They also scratch and hiss really loud

Painful scratches deliver the evil of sisters

What us poor older brothers have to endure!

To this day there is still no known cure..

 

They have floppy hair that they play with all day

In a most irritating over-brushing way

They don’t follow rules in games

They beat you up then let the boy get the blame

Almost always whining about things that don’t matter

Or yabbering on with gibberish chatter

They steal all the best treats from the fridge

They tell on you – they’re always snitches

They are real bossy britches.

My Sister

 

My sister is hot and cold, it seems

She can be kind but she can be mean

She likes to have things her way

Sometimes I like to try my way, so I say.

Then she doesn’t listen

She won’t let me get a word in

She won’t talk to me

It’s like I’m a rock or a tree

I get so annoyed and wound up

And I want to blurt it all out

 

****

When my sister gets home after school

Her moods changed from cold to “It’s all cool.”

She asks what I had for afternoon

(Her lazy way of saying afternoon tea)

I say sullenly “I had cookies.”

She asks if I wan to play ‘One Bounce”

Our game we made up and I say “..maybe once.”

It’s her way of making up

So I let my annoyance go and give up

She is my sister; hot and cold

But I love her the way she is.
