Your Little Things Poem by Reshma Ramesh

Your Little Things

Rating: 5.0


I love the custard on your lips
sweet jam on your finger tips
I love the small buttons on your shirt
the way u smell of mud and dirt

I love the little bell on your bicycle
your tiny tongue licking cold red popsicle
I love the little cars you ride around
the twigs and leaves you magically found

I love your red, blue, green crayons
the white walls you scribbled on
I love the tiny seat on your chair
the important pages you did tear


I love the little pillow you dream on
the stories i read to you and yawn
I love the mickey mouse in your bowl
the little policeman on prowl

I love the tiny hands on your watch
your best clothes, dirty blotch
I love the tiny socks on your feet
the blue dolphins on your toilet seat

but my baby more than everything
I love you my little devilish darling
and when you are grown up and gone
these little things will be my dawn

they will remind me of my happiest days
bubble baths, rhymes, tiger shark
teletubbies, paints, swings in the park
you will come to me in every lark.
