No Baby

''NO BABY!'' When he stands in front of the TV I yell loud, I yell proud ''NO BABY!'' He never hears, Don't touch this Don't touch that All he hears, "NO BABY!" All day long, When pulling on a plug Playing with a cord "NO BABY!" As he turns his head He lifts his arms, in need of a hug When it's nap time, I thank the Lord Kissing you little head, before I put you in bed, You stare with a silly smile Pulling off the covers You raise your sweet little head I SAY ''NO BABY!'' Go back to bed! You send a second smile You settle for a short while I think I'm finally getting through When I say ''NO BABY!'' Rolling over in your bed You are ready to play another game, Because, To You, ''NO BABY!'' IS JUST YOUR NAME SKAT

SKAT, babies are always out and about. You can't seem to stop, what they want to touch, taste, look at, etc. Great write. Well done. :O) Keep up with the great work. Keep on penning. Thank you so very much for sharing your wonderful and creative talents with us. We all truly appreciate it. *S* Cynthia

Cute..Yes, sometimes we as mothers use no too much and end up with it being a meaningless word to our children..Someone told me once to say yes as much as I could so that the no's would have more impact...Thanks for selecting my Haiku to share in the honorary place in your contest..Sara

this sounds so cute Irma. even through the frustration of trying to get throught to your baby's head, there is still slight joy you get from it.lol. just puts a smile on your face doesn't it. and also, a ---<@ is "a rose", but it can be many other things too.ha ha(: -Awlays&Forever Lynette
