The Toddler Series

I have written some poems for a whole slew of two year olds. These are the children of some of my best friends although I have only ever met one in person. They are my online friends, the women I turn to in joy and despair and my life is richer for knowing them.

This first poem is for a beautiful little girl named Sophie. A doll for sure, but a handful I think too!

Mischevious Sophie

As Sophie winds up her second year,
“Don’t touch that sweetie, come over here”
She fills our lives with so much joy
“Please honey, we don’t chew our toys”

A real beauty, she couldn’t be cuter.
“Sophie! What happened to mommy’s computer!”
Such a sweet disposition, she is seldom a grouch.
“Darling, don’t climb on the back of the couch!”

Her pretty voice lifted up in song.
“No jumping on Flynn, you know that’s wrong!”
We’re filled with pride that she knows her letters
“Out of my makeup, you know better”

All jesting aside, we love our girl,
She changed our life, she changed our world.
So Sophie-bug on birthday TWO
We are thrilled that we have you.

“Oops, I have to go and end this verse
Sophie just dumped out all my purse”
