PLAY ROOM

My heart your play room
and you make each visit a celebration
with those playthings I've shelved for you !
My everyday fairy-tales your rattles,
unsought advises your teether.
My told and untold secrets your building blocks,
chaotic emotions your hobby horse !
And my tenderness flowing rocks your cradle !
But then you vanish in a split second,
leaving scattered toys all over the room,
your gleeful laughter echoes in the void!
Now come my babe, I've again made your room,
all your toys spanking clean,
come fill this air with your mirth,
and play that play that scatters your toys !
