Little Girls, Big Girls...

Erin Lyden

Little girls play with innocent laughs 
Big girls gossip with evil gasps 
Little girls share their toys 
Big girls become obsessed with boys
Little girls play dress up for fun
Big girls wear fake smiles to get the job done
Little girls love their friends
Big girls love the latest trends
Little girls say ‘please’ and ‘thank you’
Big girls say things that seem to rank you
Little girls live life to be happy
Big girls thrive on making others feel crappy

  1. It gets better, Erin. Sifting through the petty cruelty of a small minority of "big girls" takes maturity and thick skin. Do your best, talk to people, and don't lose sight of the people and things that matter most to you. Great poem. --Mr. Johnson

  2. Being a teenage girl can be so very hard. Just remember to stick to the people who are genuine and know that as you get older, it will get better! Well done! ~Mrs. Kopp
