I love the custard on your lips <br />sweet jam on your finger tips <br />I love the small buttons on your shirt <br /> the way u smell of mud and dirt <br /> <br />I love the little bell on your bicycle <br />your tiny tongue licking cold red popsicle <br />I love the little cars you ride around <br />the twigs and leaves you magically found <br /> <br />I love your red, blue, green crayons <br />the white walls you scribbled on <br />I love the tiny seat on your chair <br />the important pages you did tear <br /> <br /> <br />I love the little pillow you dream on <br />the stories i read to you and yawn <br />I love the mickey mouse in your bowl <br />the little policeman on prowl <br /> <br />I love the tiny hands on your watch <br />your best clothes, dirty blotch <br />I love the tiny socks on your feet <br />the blue dolphins on your toilet seat <br /> <br />but my baby more than everything <br />I love you my little devilish darling <br />and when you are grown up and gone <br />these little things will be my dawn <br /> <br /> they will remind me of my happiest days <br />bubble baths, rhymes, tiger shark <br />teletubbies, paints, swings in the park <br />you will come to me in every lark.<br /><br />Reshma Ramesh<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/your-little-things/
