majeek
majeek! she'd look at us and
shout, while throwing things all about
though only in her eighteenth month, she sure makes us go the length
she then gets us to do the dance, for that she delivers all the steps
getting us off our seats, she sure has a feel for the beats.
with her there's never a dull moment, she's more active than any other
she's so much to adore, when running to mom for hugs and more.
learning things from her mother, she sure is never a bother
she seems to understand, right from wrong and every spoken strand.
she sure has quite the knack, to stay quiet and look back
she knows sorry and please, she's such an adorable tease
with her running rife, the house seems to come to life
she'd light up every room with "putta", she could it with her 'paata'.
helping us with the scrabble, in letters she did dabble
giving us our clues, she made us forget our blues
on the ride to belle isle, she was singing all the while
getting us all to clap and rap, she kept us from going snip-snap.
she still needs her daytime nap, we would all never even flap
she could easily drive her mom crazy, when she feels so very dazy
evenings are a lot more tough, papa's gotta give her a laugh
at last having had her supper, she's finally into her slumber. |
