Sweet Little Susan

Sweet little girl Susan,
Returning from school,
On her way back home,
Found a little pup alone,
Hitting car was gone,
Injured in leg groaning !

Kind hearted Susan 
Brought him home
Named him Bruzo,
Took him to doctor,
Wounds healed fast,
Care best medicine !

Cattie her sweet cat,
Made friends with Bruzo,
Licked his tender face,
Cooed and soothed,
Bruzo was thrilled,
Love was a sweet pill !

Guggu, the talkative parrot,
Chirped from his cage,
Susan was a little sage,
Birds animals or mankind,
To all she was equally kind,
Her love was totally blind !

Dear child of her parents,
Her pink chubby cheeks,
A broad smile on her face,
Could reduce grief to a trace,
Her small world full of grace,
Everyone she would embrace,

One home and so much fun,
Many toys but had no gun,
Fairy appeared out of her book,
Swayed magic wand, gave her a wish,
Goodness in life never goes waste,
Never ignore anyone in a haste!

Love your children's fable , Upma. I did not even notice this contest before. It is good sometimes to write about things like these, helps to lighten the mind. I have written numerous poems for children, but they are nearly all in Maltese. Congrats on your top placing. // paul
