Sense Sonnet - Steamer

 Spice It Up

"Make me some ginger tea," her yell

At me loudly, "And spice it up."

My older sister I know well,

So I hasten to fix her cup.

Big Sis does seem to think I'm at

Her beck and call when Mom and Dad

Are away from our habitat.

I'm good at making tea, but bad

When big Sis really needs to learn

A lesson on being polite

To me, so make her tea to burn

Lesson in her to treat me right.

Sis's smile turned to frown on me,

Gulping down her hot peppered tea.
