Prim and Proper

they sat under the apple tree
two little, 4 year olds having fun
could hear there voices tinkling
and a giggle now and then

suddenly all was serious 
i could hear the little girl say
thats rude Peter Perkins 
in a prim and proper way

he marched off with stern face
i asked her what was said
he wanted to swapsy looksey
that's rude said my uncle Fred.

i smiled and said well done 
thinking ...soon she will be a big girl
such thoughts she will overcome 
sampling life with a twirl
