A quiet, a still, and then a loud howl
The peace is
shattered and face has a big scowl
The little one saw a’ big lizard’ crawl under the stroller
One ‘hush’, the
lizard retreated ashamed little prowler
She posed as a teacher with toys big n small
It was time to
punish and dole out ‘Choco’ rewards
The funny ‘Bunny’ rabbit always came late
Cute ‘little ‘Barbie ‘only, finished food on
plate
Mom and Dad took turns to narrate stories
Of fairies, brave n evil and other tales of
glory
They live their own’ bachpan’ hiding with her in attic
Making faces, sharing fun and indulging in
antics
Time moved and now she was in school
She wanted to lead
and be ahead of the pool
The ‘little head girl’ was no longer a Red Riding Hood
A little authoritative but as helpful as she
could
The pace in college was full of fun
A lot of learning
and exchange pun
The little doll has now grown wee bit tall
She does not forget
still, to have her’ Choco Kelloggs’
