Books and puzzles, what a treat!
Let me play until I eat.
This wood puzzle, pieces six
When apart, I love to fix.
Put the pieces all in place,
Do it fast like it's a race.
Other times just let me look
At a pretty picture book.
Vinyl, cloth, and cardboard too.
Read me this one, mom, will you?
Look at pictures, turn the page.
See the monkeys in the cage?
Point to doggies, see the ball.
Another book? I've read them all!
Precious child so full of fun
Savor minutes, every one.
Days right now that will not last-
Soon they're memories of the past.
Smile with pleasure, play some more,
Someday he'll be out the door. |
