Wonder Poem by Tierra Bradley

Mom goes to work
Dad goes to work
Sister goes to work
Brother goes to work
Baby sister left alone at home
She wonders when they would come back
She wonders when she would be old enough
To go to work
She wonders alone in the corner
Mom gets back
She consults mom
Mom doesn't care
Mom is tired
Dad, Sister, and Brother
Says the same thing
Baby sister left alone
Thinking about the world
But no one cares
