just the two of us
take a glass of freedom and write what u feel like
Just the Two of Us
Her little hand is clasped in mine
She skips on small light feet
She wants to play at “Mums and Dads”
Like every time we meet
It’s not my kind of game, perhaps,
But I’ve got nothing planned
Her speech is a little slurred, you say
But I can understand
Her blue eyes looking into mine
She chats about her day
She tells me she’s a big girl now
Too big, almost, for play
And yes, she’s very small, I know
But size is nothing to me
And yes, she does throw tantrums at times
But so did I, at three
(And NO,
I’m not acquainted
With the very latest trend
I’ve been busy playing castles
In the sandpit with my friend)
