They trod on clear brick paths to find their way
Sacked and packed with matching socks, pants and shirts for an afternoon’s stay
Clueless and deaf to what they can do
Twin heads though different ages ranging 4 and 2!
MENACES!!... they seem grumbling and tumbling....screaming and shouting....fighting and kicking
Consciously biding to ignore
but their innocent play swabbed mind cells sore!
Insects, grass, food and glue joined in the fun
As the Epiphany of child psychology captured each awkward movement... one....by....ONE
Cake, chocs and jelly dabbed in their hair
Wondering why I even wanted to care
Carpets, clothes and hands followed in the smear
I watched and watched until to oblivion they stared
At the end I fed them to a quickening doze
And a kite wrapped around them; we were no longer foes
They kissed me and called me mom
I’ll tell no lies!
And we parted on... lengthy-sodden...good-byes
