a little poem

morning comes with squawks and tears

soon a happy face appears

hungry girl joins me in bed

her giggling- music to my ears

morning science, breakfast time

life sure changes on a dime

all my day is now for her

diapers, feedings, life's a blur

messy faces, poopy pants

crying, wailing, angry chants

Ellie smiles- my heart melts

this gal's got me in a trance

dinner, fox news, lots of stress

pretty soon- house all a mess

time to hold her- settle down

family sitting all around

bath time, bed time, one last feed

what else does this baby need

teeth brushed, face washed, BJ's here

all I need is resting near
