Lillian

February 15th 

Let me set the stage:
Lillian my almost 5 year old going on "I know everything better", found the stash of candy. It is 10:30 p.m.and she is bouncing off the walls. To keep my sanity I write poems. This is what I came up with for this situation!


Lillian
Happy girl-
 why don't you sleep?
Your mother-
 is tired and ready to weep!
Happy girl-
 why are you awake?
Your mother-
 is weary and ready to break!
Happy girl-
 Why don't you dream?
Your mother
 is exhausted and ready to scream!
Happy girl-
 why are you climbing a wall?
Your mother-
 is fatigued and ready to bawl!

Happy girl, tell your mother you are
ready to see, Princess Bubblegum in
dreamland, please do it for me!
