                        Sometimes it's hard to be a baby.

 

My little face says it all Adults think they know it all When they don't know a thing It can be hard sometimes to be a baby One moment you're the best thing in the world Everyone loves a baby But when we. get a little older We are ignored and end up in the gravy I tried to rebel But it didn't Turn out too well I should be in the bursary And our Moms In the penetrnsuary Whats a kid like me Doing in a joint like this? I suppose it was born at the wrong time Wrong place I tried the old trick When there's when there's nothing left So plan A cry to draw attention Only problem was Both my parents were deaf I have my own tantrums People said '' it's just teething problems But I don't have any teeth" That's the problem So I'm here And must confess I'm depressed So embarrassed And Harrised Just think When I get back to nursery? I walk in looking like a lampshade The other babies will think I've gone daft I've lost my marbles! And laugh! When I get a bit older And have my teeth I can speak After intense pychothrapy For Trauma I warn ye I may get bigger than those who scared me Just wait and see.

Such an adorable picture and a delightful read...I suppose it is hard to be a baby...life can be sooo confusing even at that age :-) This verse was humorous and priceless: People said ''it's just teething problems But I don't have any teeth" That's the problem" Hadn't thought about that before. Love your imaginative spirit which is so evident in this poem. Hope you're having a great weekend, Sara

This is so cute and truly enjoyable, Peter. It's true that sometimes it's hard to be a baby, but, between us, it can also be great fun lol :) ~ Regards // paul
