Hand your sister a bead

- Mommy, she's at it again!
- What is she doing then?
- She is breaking it,
always ruins everything!
- Oh sweet boy, how to make
you see long beyond
these testing days?
Past learning to chew
her hands and toys
to when she is your closest.
Through thick and thin,
she'll know you best.

- Hand her one bead.
She only wants to be
part of her amazing
Bubba's fantasy,
she won't care how big
her part is in it.

You'll miss these days
she can't help but stare
in wonder and awe
of her big brother.
When she is grown
and no longer a fan
she will then frown
and you won't idol.
Keep her hand near
your voice in her ear
help her develop
and forever be there.

If you don't resist,
you will find she is,
to you, and you to her,
my ultimate gift.
