Am I close enough to feel the hay...can I stay here and slide all day?

If I crinkle my nose will it make you laugh?
If I get to close will I take a bath?


Can I squish and spill my mac and cheese?
Can I take this laundry with me please?
I am guilty of naked-ness

it's only a little dirt Mom it wont make a mess
I want to touch and play and grow,
I want to see and feel and know
I want to splash, and laugh and roll
what happens if I put this down that hole?
I want to cry, and bite and say "no!"
I want to feel the cool grass below
I want to gaze at the open sky
I want uncle Chad to throw me up high
I want to see the sun so bright
I want Dad to kiss me goodnight
I am full of wonder and awe
"Life is short, live it up!" to quote my grandma
The simple things in life are worthwhile
so laugh and love, and don't forget to smile.
