Haley's Song

By Patty Bokern •
Pastel rainbows on a crayon sky
Delighted giggles watching clouds float by
Popsicle hugs all sticky and sweet
Pink-painted toenails on grass stained feet
Lollipop lipstick and dress-up pretend
Having a tea-party with a friend
Sandcastles built near the ocean blue
Fairy-tale dreams that always come true
Bedtime stories and a kiss good night
All tucked in under covers pulled tight
Her soft pink arm ‘round her Teddy Bear
She drifts off to sleep with out a care
