Lyrical Sunday | Play

Inside the mind of my two year old…

‘Play with me! Play with me! –

And with my magic wand, I’ll turn you into… a tree!’

‘Help me save the baby lion cub –

you can be in my animal rescue club!’

‘Let’s dance, play tag, catch the ball –

climb up there – careful Mummy, don’t fall!’

‘Can I make a magic potion? Put green colour in the bath?’

‘Paint my face, please, like a cat –

now let’s roll the play-dough flat.’

‘Play with me! Play with me!’

‘Can we bake? Pleeeeeease? Flour we’ll need –

I can stir the egg in, and help you knead.’

‘Come on, let’s play hide-and-seek –

You count, I’ll hide, do not peek!’

‘Swing up high, now down low,

faster, faster, round we go!’

IMG_3254

‘It’s so sunny, let’s run in the sea and dig in the sand –

come on, let’s look for treasure on foreign land.’

‘Play with me! Play with me!”

‘I can help you wash the dishes –

clean the kitchen, cut the grass –

I will hang the washing too –

dust the table, polish the glass.

I like to help – it can be fun – especially when we play my way!’

IMG_2850

‘Play with me! Play with me!

It’s how I live – I play all day –

Just let me show you and I’ll make your day!’
