By Anelda and Suricke B.
?Dear big brother,
To see when you go to eat.?
Answer me this.?
?Eat when??
?Yes,? he said, ?if I possibly can.? I could not help but ask.
?Tell me,? ?Why, my precious!
I ask in a sugar-sweet voice, At night, of course.
"Why does the fridge have its own
light?? When Mom and Dad?s sound asleep.?
?But that?s stealing, big brother!?
He swung around,
A devilish smile around his lips. ?Honey, if I was stealing
?Well, my dear, what an excellent
question Would I put on the light
And also easy to answer.
The light is for you, sugar
For others to see my misdeeds??
