The Older One

By: Weston Whiteside

 

I never thought this day would come

With overjoyed excitement i choked on my gum

 

I was going to be a big brother

I stared with disbelief at my mother

 

I thought for a moment this was all a joke

so i ran up to her and gave her stomach a poke

 

I tried to help mom by rubbing her feet

and was shocked at the amount she would eat

 

So the time finally came that he would arrive

i was taking this big brother thing for a test drive

 

The work load would go up a ton

because i became the Older one
