little flower


little flower, little flower
don't be sad
your leaves are brown
and your blooms have faded
are you thirsty
have a sip of my water
are you cold and lonely
i'll be your friend
here's some sunshine
there, that's better
look at you now
you're green again
and blooming again
but, wait
are you still sad
your blooms are drooping
they hang upside down
have a little more water
and a little more sunshine
i'll see you in the morning.
you take my breath away!
your petals are pink
and stand tall
you're smiling, i can tell
you make me smile
i'm so glad we're friends

one little puppy

one little puppy sits and waits
she stares out the window
at the cars passing by
she watches the bees fly
and listens to the birds sing
but nothing brings a smile to her face
one little puppy sits and waits
she tries chasing her tail
but it's not as fun
she chews on her bone
and sniffs at the flowers
but they don't smell as sweet
one little puppy sits and waits
he hasn't come home yet
now the sun is fading
and the sky is growing dark
but wait! here he comes
she jumps for joy, barks & runs around
one little puppy sits at his feet
she's at his beck and call
he reaches out to pet her
she smiles deep inside
and gently licks his fingertips
she lays close never to leave his side
