My Sweet Daughter

If you see a flash
A bang and a crash

You know who it is don’t you?

If you see a jump
A thump and a bump

You know who it is don’t you?

If you see a swing
A ping and a zing

You know who it is don’t you?

Yes! It’s my little daughter
All pretty and neat

And everyone says: 
“Ah isn’t she sweet.”

She was very preconscious,

She was very preconscious, full of life and accident prone, and your right life was never boring. Those days have long gone now - she's 31 this year and has a son of her own, he was just the same when he was young, he's 10 now. Thanks for passing by Cat, I alway enjoy your poetry and thanks for commenting. Lot of Love Mand
