Day Five

Day Five

The prompt at NaPoWriMo hadn't been posted when
I went out this morning, so I wrote a little rhyme
for my Hello Baby collection.

CHOCOLATE

WHISKERS

Lily kitten pussycat

Nimble as an acrobat

With her chocolate whiskers sat

On a thimble Lily cat

Aashray and Anu

SCIENCE BOOK

When Aashray reads his science book

His sister Anu takes a look                                                               

At Cosmonauts and Astronauts

And marching Martians on the Moon

They're mixing magic with their thoughts                       

We’ll surely all be weightless soon

If everybody understood

That everything is made of wood

Where Barbie dolls are dressed in pearls

And even paper comes from trees

But in the mind of little girls

The moon is blue and made of cheese

Though living in this world down here

We’re subject to the atmosphere

So like an eagle in the sky

Just once the dream of puppet toys

When only pigs and cars could fly

To have a science book for boys

Happy First Birthday...

LA BALLERINA

Iris can smile for England

Forever and ever again

Some call her La Ballerina

Bib bib Bib bib Bib bib

Come sunshine come hail come rain

Whatever the weather

She’ll never complain

Bib bib Bib bib Bib bib

With her plastic giraffe

And her neckerchief scarf

Iris can smile for England

Barney Rubble he’s no trouble

When he’s only blowing bubbles

Barneysaurus Daddysaurus

Not if Mummy saw us first

Day Twenty Eight

BANANAS
There once was a man from Bahamas
who went everywhere in pyjamas
He thought it was cool
to look like a fool
But everyone said He's bananas

Happy St. Georges...

CONFOUNDED
Dawn and Dave and their pet robot
went walking along the old railroad.
But the track ran out at the roundabout
across the street from Lidl.
They went round and round the confounded
thing then got stuck in the middle.

Day Seventeen

The prompt was to write a cinquain, here's my attempt:

HAT TRICK

Lily’s

always smiling

with wonderful blue eyes

that trickle well up waterfall

sometimes

Here's one I did in 2008 Secret Seat

Day Six

CHIN CHIN

Christopher, Christopher, where have you been?

I have been dreaming a fantastic dream.

Chubby chops, chubby chops, chubby chin chin?

I started smiling, when you tucked me in.

Day One 2015

SNOW HAT

Lily with her snow hat on

Who said the winter’s dead and gone

Snow hat on and Welly boots

Wearing her all-weather suit

Some people told her it was spring

With all the daffodils and things

But she was right it poured with rain

And after that came snow again

Give us a twirl!

PROPER GIRL
Other girls look such a mess
in their summer cotton dress
but Lily's such a proper girl
when she does a little twirl

PANCAKE FACE

Piranha baby

With her pancake face

The bib gang baby

In bandana lace

She drives me crazy

With her yellow skirt

Dotty as Daisy

In her hooded shirt

Pancakes for breakfast

Lunch dinner and tea

She’s growing so fast

My little Lily

My Day Twelve from 2013 

From town to town...

SPIDERS

Sometimes they swim sometimes they float

From Lands End to John O'Groats
Round and round and up and down

As I tramp from town to town

I've got spiders in my throat

Two for one...

DEMI-BIRTHDAY

Hello Baby I said to Hello Baby today

Hiya she replied I’m six months old today

Happy Birthday Not really Demi-birthday

Hello Baby Happy six months today

HELLO (SONG)

Hello Baby hello

Hello baby Lily

Hello Baby don't you know

Hello Baby hello

On a windy day...

DOWN DALE

Hello baby went for a walk in a rucksack

To the Roaches uphill and down dale

Way way off the beaten track

The wild wind was blowing a gale

060214

Like the movie...

BIRDY

She wears a Onesie on a Sunday

And a Romper on a Monday

Tuesday Wednesday Thursday

She can fly. Oh she can fly!

She can fly like a birdy

So high up in the sky.

Christmas pud...

LITTLE MISS SMILE

Little Miss Smile

Sat on a stile

Eating her Christmas Pud

Along came a stranger

Who told her the danger

Of falling off into the mud

080114

She wants to talk...

CHEESE AND CHALK

Lily’s much like cheese and chalk

Lily wants to fly and walk

Why does Lily want to fly?

Other girls just want to cry

That’s why Lily wants to talk…

Somebody can fly...

LILY AND BILL

Lily and Bill flew up the hill

To save them a very big climb

Lily flew back when she saw Jack

And Bill said see you next time

Lily was home when Jack did phone

But all she did was mime

Jack called her mate to make a date

And told her a nursery rhyme
