iambic pentameter I do not know whether this sonnet is iambic pentameter or not.
Dear sister, you’re a guardian angel.
You are very, intelligent, and wise,
you, sister, you’re very substantial
you have raised me up to the pleasant skies
If I could have one wish, it would be to
help always like you’ve done to me
so from now on we always stick like glue
So then all we’ll do is just simply glee.
Through my ups and downs, right by me, you stood,
and you gave me your hand, so do not fear
I’ll always help you whenever I could
I beat and pinch but YOU? I’ll Always cheer!
My appreciation has no bad end.
You’ll always be my sister and my friend.

This is something I didn't get while in HS but I loved doing rhyming poems. However the internet is a good source of examples so I found this one site which should help.

They should a work of Shakespeare.
When I look at it and break it down as shown in the first sentence, it looks like there is an even count of syllables to the entire line rather than and odd number.
I may be wrong but it sure looks like that is how it works. If so, then taking a line of yours would go like this:
Dear sis --- ter you're --- a guar ---di an --- an gel
The definition itself is quite hard to understand if you learn more by watching something done rather than to read instructions and that is how i learn. So if you count how many of these two beats you have in a line, it should be five as you have in the example I wrote out.
I will do it again with another line so you can see and thus double check all your lines.
(My ap) 1st one, (pre ci) 2nd one, (a tion) 3rd one, (has no) 4th one, (bad end)5th one. ]
