Dee Dee
By Helen E
A gift
For a precious newborn
Tucked in a cot
Dee Dee welcome; our girl’s home
A cry
Squawking in the dark
Thrown in the cot
Dee Dee comfort; it’s your job
Day Care
Packed in the bag
Mummy’s gone to work
Dee Dee be there; help her stay
First day
No toys allowed
Mum’s watching the clock
Dee Dee comfort; it’s your job
Tick, tock
Time marches on
Baby’s all grown up
Dee Dee stay; don’t move on
