Terza Rima

Annita

You are younger than me yet almost my size

You’re growing up I understand but it’s too fast

You dye your hair and the way you are dressed but we both know its lies

We both know it’s not you; it’s a phase that will not last

You remind me of me at times

We argue and get sick of each other but you know we have a blast

You think you’re dumb but I see a smile that shines

I know you’re intelligent you just need to believe

I could write about you more but this poem needs to have rhymes

I know it’s hard right now but sometimes you got to roll up your sleeves

I went through it as well and I know you can do it too

Remember the amount of work you put in effects on what you receive

I helped raise you, so you’re stuck to me like glue

I’ve watched you grow

You’re my munchkin, it’s just us two

I want you to know that I love you so

In my eyes you will always be my little Annita

I will always be here for you; I won’t ever let you go

Eres mi baby, te quiero mucho hermanita
