About the Poem

I wrote this poem because my sisters, once again, hurt me. I'm a little more sensitive then they, but they don't realize what they say hurts me. I think they should be a little more kind and appreciate their baby sister. Sometimes a kid feels that they need to be perfect in order to live up to their siblings expectations.

Sisters

Why is it that sisters tease?
Can you tell me please?
They always make me cry
with one mean lie.
Why is it me,
They don't like to see?
All I did was love you!
Do you have no respect?
Or is it 'cause you have
to be perfect?

I just love this poem. In my summer homework, I have to find a poem that represents it, and I found this one. This is how Amy, the youngest os the four, felt. She was left out when her sisters shunned her! I just love this.

why do sisters hate by the love in our fate. is it because we're young or is it because they think we're stupid in the head. you go through the same nonsense everyday and yet you still love them. how do you feel everytime this happens. they say mean things to prove there cool. as we know sisters could be cruel. they shout and fight with all their might but where this it bring them. Nowhere. we could call them names as in cruela but will that solve anything as we would say" cruelas can be mean and also a pain in the head. we all think they are liers but can save us from harm. they teach us a lesson in life to sore. but nothing happens. we ask ourselves what should we do but must we do something. i know there mean but you should be lucky there your sisters and you should love yours as much as mine. i love my sisters.

hey i just wanna say that ur poem is like WOW i cant even describe how good it was i love it alot and that poem just makes me realise alot about me and my sister who is actually 17 she is a great sister and i can always talk to her but then again at the same time she gets on my nerves and what ur poem says just reminds me of everything between me and my sister. even though we fite and we have our bad daiiz we still have our good daiiz 2 and i can tell her anythin and we r really close but its just sumtimes this kinda happens like we fite coz she wants me 2 do her room but in the enndu can tell and you know from ur heart that its the best 2 have a sister that will always be there 4 u no matta wat happens. thx heaps

As i read the poem i kind of understand what it feels like to fite all the time with a sister. My sister is 18 and i am 16. When we were young all we did was fite. Now that she is out of our home fiting was her way to tell me that she loved me. This poem is a 10.

Michele
I like this poem, because I am a foster child, and the home that I lived in "their" daughter is perfect. she gets all the attention. We are in our 50's and still, they don't see me. no matter what I do. thier grandchildren matter most because they are from "their daughter". that is what they told me ever since I came in their home. I cannot give this (whatever I thought I needed) because your NOT our daughter. "she" is. yeah, right! and it is that way to this day. better house, job, car!. she can do no wrong, me. they don't see

well my sister is a year younger than me and always tries to be cooler and prettier and most of the time she hurts me. sometimes she pinches sometimes she slaps sometimes she punchs and sometimes she bites. so this poem helped me loads most of it at the end cause she always thinks that beening about sisters makes me think sometimes cause some people have worse sisters but mine is ok sometimes thats not ofen. this poem has really helped me thank you Psqahs for making this poem it really tuched me.
