Button nose, soft golden hair,
your as cute as a little teddy bear.
Free as a bird, weighed down by noth'n,
you, my sister, are as cute as a button.
Only eight summers old,
but in a few years your beauty will be told.
Soon boys will line who think their someth'n ,
but their have to get past me to get to my button.
Thankfully your still young in life,
still unknown to sadness and strife.
Even in years to come, I'll be there,
ready to comfort my little Bear.
You kiss my cheek and I close my eyes,
not that it ever comes as a surprise.
Bright-eyed Bear, and funny Button,
laughing, smiling, running, jump'n.
Dark clouds overhead wont be aloud to hover,
I'll blow them away with the power of older brother.
Never fear, never fret,
My darling button, my little pet.
I'll fight your dragon, and catch you when you fall,
I'll be your guardian, so strong and tall.
Whatever you need I'll give to you,
my love for you will be proven true.
You will be weighed and measured but not found want'n,
for I'll give you everything my Bear and Button.

Love,
~Big Brother
