Little Faith Disarray
(Ode to Baby Faith Deziréy)
Little Faith Disarray,
she is having a fit;
she’s throwing a tantrum
and refusing to eat
To the north fly her books,
her toys travel west;
on the floor lands her food,
the dining room is a mess.
She cries for her ‘baba,’
she will not eat her ‘soupie;’
of Dora, the explorer,
she is one major groupie.
Mommy is pulling her hair,
‘titi’ is calling it quits;
till grandma yells: ICE CREAM!
Now the world is at peace.
– Jacqueline Hallenbeck
