I have one thing to ask of you
Play with your sister
This one simple task for you
Play with your sister
why cant you see
how precious time can be
dont you know
soon she wont beg for you in the snow
she wont look up to all that you do
soon she wont want to be just like you
shell find her own way
and lose sight of the day
when all she wanted was a friend
someone to throw snowballs with and sled down hills with
someone who would hold her hand and hug her tight
soon that little girl wont be little
and you will beg for the day
the day that she asked you to play

This is beautiful, and something a lot of adults don't learn to do with their children.

Great job on your puntuation in this on, it was very easy to understand :)
