This poem is very close to my heart and about my favorite subject :P... this one is for my precious babies! I love them more than words can ever express :)
One look from papa
One spanking from grandma
One scolding from grandpa
And that familiar wail
"Mamma"
Toys strewn all over
Running helter-skelter
For cover
His lil’ face with fear fraught
When he's caught
And he yells again
"Mamma"
Strokes of his crayon
Writing A B C
Smile on his face
And a Star
In his copy
And he shouts in glee
"Mamma"
Cute...sweet...adorable
Precious...huggable...kissable
Giggles...laughter
Stories of here ever after
He sighs
Sleep in his eyes
I hear it…again
As he whispers softly
"Mamma"
One spanking from grandma
One scolding from grandpa
And that familiar wail
"Mamma"
Toys strewn all over
Running helter-skelter
For cover
His lil’ face with fear fraught
When he's caught
And he yells again
"Mamma"
Strokes of his crayon
Writing A B C
Smile on his face
And a Star
In his copy
And he shouts in glee
"Mamma"
Cute...sweet...adorable
Precious...huggable...kissable
Giggles...laughter
Stories of here ever after
He sighs
Sleep in his eyes
I hear it…again
As he whispers softly
"Mamma"
