The Brat

wonder on Oct 2, 2009

I had painted this sometime ago.Now its not with me so I couldn’t improve the photograph.

Thenest is all crammed

So shabby and dowdy

Those nestlings are an awful lot

Boisterous and downright rowdy.

They poke fun at me

They tug at my down

Yet I suffer them quietly

I do not wear a frown.

Pecking at those crumbs I’m sick

It’s burgers that I care

I refuse to settle for two pence, mom

This I declare.

And what about my mobile

You promised me at birth?

Let alone a PC

Am I not of worth?

You seem to ask for a lot but your painting doesn’t need work.

nice painting. I\’m not a brat cause we\’re just a simple family with not much money for all pleasures.

I thought your painting was really beautiful. I also loved your poem too. I think we can all relate to it. I think we have all felt like brats at one time or another.
