EDEN
By
Grandma Baadsgaard
I
love you Eden.
When
Eden jumps way up high
She
can see the clear blue sky.
Then
she crouches way down low
Finds
all the potato bugs and so
She
lets them tickle all her toes
Then
rolls in a ball faking a pose.
For
Eden likes to run and play
Ride
her scooter then shout and say,
“I’m
the mightiest princess with a sword!”
With
tutu fluff and a growling word
She
sucks two fingers upside down just so
Then
twirls her hand in your hair high and low.
When
you think she’s ready for sleep
She
opens her eyes for one more peep
Gives
you a punch and a squeeze and a kick
And
just for good measure, a great big lick.
Then
she looks up at you with those big blue eyes
And
drifts to sleep by and by.
