While baby-sitting my almost two year old grand-daughter Ava Rose, oops! I used the slang word "shart" in this which is used commonly here in the states. It means that you have soiled your undies. (lol).

It was nearing - the eve of night When I went in the room - to dim the light To tuck in bed - baby Ava Rose Hug good night - kiss her nose Then she saw - my half a moon She made a face - looked like a prune So I read to her - Dr. Seuss And I accidentally - let one loose She looked at me - and she tried to say What's that smell papa - that came my way So I told to her - I almost shart Thank goodness Ava - it was just a fart We shared a giggle - to her, I said I know it stinks - but it's time for bed
