Waiting For My Brother

All my life Iv'e been alone.
With no brother or sister to call my own.
One day last February my mum got of the phone...
She screamed and shouted, "You're going to have a brother
One to call you'r very own!"
When I heard this I cried happy tears.
This is something I have been wanting for years and years!
A little brother! Oh baby! Oh boy!
He is going to bring our family so much joy.
I will teach him so many things.. like
How to kick a footy and ride a bike.
Some nights a lay awake and think, will he look like me?
I guess, I will have to wait until November to see.
