Start Talking!

The glittering and the twinkling eyes The laughter in our house never dries! The little hands that do litter No, they do not turn our moods bitter! Many barbies and stuffed toys There is no end to our joys. Kitchen sets and fishing kits The cars and the train sets that fits! The non-stop chatter What's there on that platter? The eager questions that arise Its like Einstein in disguise! Whether to wear a frock or a knicker Can I please have another snicker? How is it that we bake a cake? Oh! Please tell me for Christ's sake!! Has puppy now become a star? Why has he gone so far? Can you please put all my chocolates in the pink jar? O Mamma, Can we please pet a jaguar? How is it that a truck is made? Is that a jasmine or a jade? What is it that mamma is afraid? Oh! I'm an expert in persuade! The cycling around I go round and round Why do you laugh at my frown?
