I think this is the fifth or sixth poem of yours I've read tonight. I've genuinely enjoyed every single one of them. You are so talented! You really should consider putting together a collection of children's poems.

Thanks :) I had thought at one point that I'd love to do a children's book. Then I thought of publishing a book of poetry. Sad for me, my computer got hacked into so some of the poetry was taken. Some I've retrieved, so I'm posting them. Crazy, huh?

Did I say the last time - children would love this poem, so full of imagination. You are a regular Mother Goose, Mikki. Love, daver
