My Little Lovelies


I wanted to share this poem I came across in a poetry competition. I would love to take credit for it but it isn't mine. I just thought it was lovely :)


Oh my little lovelies, how sweet you are right now, tucked up asleep and dreaming I do love you, and how! 

I don't mind the stains on the carpet, or my grubby walls, I love your little handprints and interrupted telephone calls.

 I'll kiss your little cheek I'll hold your little hand. I'll hug you very tight and tell a story every night, about fairies from a far away land. 

Mummy's very tired, Daddy's had a long day, the cat's lost his mind.
 But we wouldn't have it any other way.

 Brownies, cubs and dancing? Of course! you don't need to ask, but I'd like a little more notice when you have a homework task! 

Have you brushed your teeth and got your shoes on? What do you mean they're dirty?? Nah we're not THAT late for school.... It's only JUST gone 8.30...

 Ahhh...my darlings.... Away I must creep, But I have to be quite sneaky, because I need my sleep and although you're sweet, your floor is very creaky.

 Love, Mum.
