captivating winter child 
outside playing gyrating
 spinning and twirling hula hoopings
vibrated so much landed on the roof 
plastic ring slowly falls down
 until the ground
~
 the little girl 
still dancing, jumping up and down
little girl on the outside full of joy
 bye and bye 
she hula hooping outside 
in the winter time

There is a lovely fellow;
a joyous sight to see.
A personality that’s quite mellow;

His song in my ears brings the tears;
Sometimes for him, I pine.

In my glass eye, I watch him; 
jogging throughout in space.
His varied hula-hooping rims;
his rotund belly grace.

Looking like a toy, in that distant place; 
he’s quite a dapper fellow, with a precious face.

She was curious and I was too:
Did the bird understand my coo?
 
Or she only wanted to protest:
“Put back this egg on the nest!”
 
So I undid the egg’s blue lace:
“Would you do too in my place?”
 
Cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo...
