Childs's Play Poem by Ed_ Schmidt

Bouncing along the bubbling stream
Adrift in a dance of shiny moonbeams
Play hide and seek with the sun's many rays
Climbing a rainbow riding it's waves
Captain a leaf and send it afloat
Crossing a sea or dangerous moat
Crawl through the mud and capture a spy
Racing a rabbit no trace of a tie
Finally home, walk through the door
See mom’s stern look, at mud on the floor
Stepping quite stiffly led by the ear
Off to the bathroom my bottom might sear
Talking a whirlwind with each taken step
Mourning the loss of a floor freshly swept
Breaching the door and drawing the bath
Regretting the choice of my ill fated path
Out breaks the smile that brightens her face
Lighting my world through her loving grace
Supper a joy, it’s soon off to bed
A kiss on the cheek, eyes, and forehead
Cozy and warm greeting sleep with a grin
With the coming of dawn an adventure begins
