WELL AFTER TWELVE

My youngest, she came to me late in the night. Well after twelve. This is how I want to forever remember it.

WELL AFTER TWELVE

Sleepy eyes batted, over alabaster skin.
Hair brown, long and thin.

A drinky, a sippy, a cup full of tea
a blanky, an teddy, plus one for me.

A kissy an stowy....probwy Sno White
Its well after twelve, middle of the night.

Daddy's sleepin' an Sissy too,
We might wake them, well mostly you.

Pweeze wiff cherries an sunny daes on top
well after twelve is, just a clock.

Once upon a chapter, chapter
and, they all lived, happily ever after.

While sleepy eyes slept, deep under laughter.
