when brother throws a tantrum screams and bites his knee then it comes to snack time he always gets morther than me or puppy digs up your flower bed then runs across the street chews your bestest shoes up he barks and gets a treat i watch and i try to figure doing all the things i should so why is being naughty so much funner than being good

You hit the nail on the head. Parents unknowingly teach their children bad habits by praising bad behavior and forgetting the good behavior is ignored.

I immediately thought of Psalm 73 when I read your poem. I like the point of view that you used- the voice of a child. Children have such a keen sense of justice and fairness.Enjoyed the imagery.Great poem!

Pat,

Ah, the wisdom of a child. Even as adults being naughty is more fun!

Pat, I fear this has been the lament of many a brother, or sister (and probably lots of mother's & father's) since the dawn of time.

Nicely done, thanks Dick

..because it is..
an old friend of mine used to say
'i'm not good, i'm just good at being bad'
Lovely touch here, Pat.

Haha!! Gotta love it. Maybe that's why I've had so much fun in my life, huh? Gotta love it twice. This is just cute.
