Wakey-wakey from our beds, <br />thoughts of cookies in our heads. <br /> <br />Mom and Daddy's eyes are closed. <br />They are sleeping. They won't know. <br /> <br />Hurry-hurry, on the double, <br />if they wake, we'll be in trouble. <br /> <br />Blankies, pillows, on the floor. <br />Squeaky-squeaky goes the door. <br /> <br />Shhh, shhh, tippy-toe. <br />To the kitchen we will go. <br /> <br />Sneaky-sneaky down the hall, <br />bare feet creeping 'long the wall. <br /> <br />C'mon, Sissy, it's not far, <br />there it is, the cookie jar! <br /> <br />I can't reach it, I'm too small. <br />Get a chair to make us tall. <br /> <br />Shuffle-shuffle, scooty chair, <br />pushy-pushy, almost there. <br /> <br />Clinky-clinky goes the top, <br />hold it tight, or it will drop. <br /> <br />Giggle, giggle, tee-hee-hee, <br />two for you, and two for me. <br /> <br />Uh oh, Sissy, turn around... <br />Mom and Daddy. We've been found. <br /> <br />Peeky-peeky, Mom and dad, <br />are you angry? Are you mad? <br /> <br />Whisper-whisper, over there... <br />they want to know if we will share!<br /><br />C.J.
