First in everything,
Sounds pleasing,
It comes with a heavy crown,
Must not let anyone down,
It is not what you are perceiving.

I really enjoyed the poetry it's really life felt.
As an older sibling, I want people to avoid the implication of if one is first, then one is privileged. This also applies not only to older siblings but also with someone or something that can be easily sterotyped.
