when I was seventeen I was quite shoked at what I had seen My step mother was indeed pregnant with child number six I couldnt believe this how could they do this to me I was still getting use to the new step mom and along pops up the new baby for months I was in denial I moped around the house and I refuse to talk to anyone I felt as if my life was crashing down I have always been the baby and now that I was getting older they suprise me with this what about college and my new car I had so much pity and anger built up inside but that all changed one day Barbra had announced well she more screamed that it was time It was just me and her at home and she was calling my name I saw her lying on the couch in pain I couldn’t react fast enough I helped her in the car and drove her to the hospital I must have paged my dad at least four times when we got there all my brothers and their wives were in the waiting room Barbra turned and asked me if I would go in the delivery room with her not wanting to at first I hesitated but then she said please so I did after a couple of hours of shouting my father showed up and so did my little sister I remember the feeling I had when I saw the head and when the doctor handed her to Barbra she was so small all in a moment I forgot all my greed and self indulgence here was a little person..my little sister I spent the night in the hospital with Barbra that night I often found myself walking to the nursery I just stood there and I stared at her The next day when they brought her home I got to hold her for the first time’ I could have sworn it was me that she was smiling at though dad said it was him I kissed her cheek and said welcome home I’m your older sister Christiena and I’m glad that you are here
Reason for writing:
When I wrote this poem I was indeed very self absorbed I didnt want any new siblings my brother had just moved out and finally i was an only child but then my dad's fifth wife told me that she was pregnant..I acted like a spoiled
brat for along time but once Charisha got here I changed my ;mind that maybe having a little sister wouldnt be so bad :)
