Mirror baby

[pomes]

Look at me, look at me -
That little baby is looking at me!
Look at me, look at me -
That baby's mother is looking at me!

It's funny how that mother
Looks so much like mine
And that silly baby
Mocks me all the time!

Look at me, look at me -
That little baby is looking at me!
Look at me, look at me -
That baby's mother is looking at me!

There's a mammy in the mirror
Smiling big and wide
And every time I turn around
My mammy's at my side

Look at me, look at me -
That little baby is looking at me!
Look at me, look at me -
That baby's mother is looking at me!

The baby in the dining room
Is held up by her mum
And the baby in the lift at Boots
Is sitting on her bum

Look at me, look at me -
That little baby is looking at me!
Look at me, look at me -
That baby's mother is looking at me!

We play at peek-a-boo. Boo!
And when I laugh she laughs
So we share a sense of humour
But I'm her cuter half.

Tell your mammy if you two keep this up and come up with some illustrations, you'd have yourselves a charming children's book.

Just sayin' ...

Ssh, the reason I started writing again is because I took the pressure to publish off myself! But it has crossed my mind...

Kate used to play with "baby in the mirror" Not sure she realised it was herself initially *g*

I love these poems.
You should write a childrens poem book.
The poems are lovely.
I hope to see you soon.

Ever since Lachlan was tiny we've looked at "the baby that stole Mummy". I think he may be starting to figure it out. He grins at him now, rather than scowling :)
