my little brother :) Sticky fingers and a chocolate face Broken toys and a broken vase Cars and trucks here and there Boats and crayons everywhere Bats and balls strewn in the yard Sweaty face from playing hard Broken bones and bloody knees Stings from ants and wasps and bees Feet stomping on the floor Fingerprints on the sliding door A painful cry and a whimpering whine A mischevious smile that seems to shine Face being licked by the dog Rolling around in the mud like a hog Housing reptiles of all shapes and sizes Always full of odd surprises Tracking mud from shoes and clothes Yet another bloody nose Sneaking cookies from the cookie jar Face streaked black with mud and tar Ketchup stains on your new shirt Brand new shoes covered with dirt Sometimes you can be quite a bother But I love you anyways because you're my little brother dedicated to roel jr. castaneda
