Morning snapshot

Up to my elbows in washable paint
Flakes of dried playdough and sharp-cornered blocks
Caltrops of Lego and lack of restraint
Sculptures with seashells and twigs glued to rocks

Three conversations in six different rooms
Sums and wet knickers and alphabet rhymes
Songs about frogs, owls and pussycats wooing
I'd love to be stressed but I don't have the time!
